Side by side
Consultation participation and their own register declarations, side by side. Counts, not judgments — participation is not influence.
Counts here are a floor, never a total: they cover the 583 consultation files tracked so far (42,224 submissions, mostly 2025–26), so an organization's real filing history is larger, not smaller.

BEUC - The European Consumer Organisation · filed 26 Aug 2020 · source
Many traders are taking advantage of consumers’ growing interest in environmental matters because of the climate crisis and are using green claims to differentiate themselves. Many claims are not or cannot be substantiated. This triggers confusion and mistrust among consumers and jeopardizes their active contribution to the transition towards a green economy.
BEUC - The European Consumer Organisation · filed 13 Jul 2023 · source
BEUC, the European Consumer organisation, very much welcomes the publication of the Green Claims Directive as an important step in fighting greenwashing and ending misleading unsubstantiated claims from being displayed on products and services. Consumers are confronted with a systemic greenwashing problem.
ASOBIO · filed 21 Jul 2023 · source
ASOBIO fully supports the Proposal for a Directive prepared by the European Commission on the justification and communication of explicit environmental claims (hereinafter the Proposal for a Directive). Any legislative action to limit greenwashing is positive to foster consumer protection, promote a fairer and more competitive market, and ensure more responsible and sustainable consumption.

BEUC strongly welcomes the announcement that the European Commission will be taking initiatives to empower consumers in the green transition through new information rights, protecting them from misleading practices and strengthening the enforcement of their rights. Such initiatives are urgently needed to allow consumers to play a more important role in achieving the sustainable consumption.
BEUC - The European Consumer Organisation · filed 20 May 2022 · source
BEUC welcomes the proposal on empowering consumers for the green transition in which the Commissions proposed some targeted amendments to the Unfair Commercial Practices Directive (UCPD) and the Consumer Rights Directive (CRD). However, we still see some need for improvement.
ASOBIO · filed 28 May 2022 · source
ASOBIO, the Spanish Association of Ecological Manufacturers and Traders, supports the EC initiative COM (2022) 143 final amending directives on consumer protection. For ASOBIO, there is a need for specific regulation of the term ‘sustainability’ when applied to the food sector. Organic certification in food production should be the starting point for claiming sustainability of a food production or product.
