CHALLENGE Global Forests are on the decline, be it deliberate or the opposite. Detail I will omit, though I will state that when poisons are sprayed by drones or other from the skies, the impact is on ALL LIFE. Besides, fires, agri/plant disease also have a detrimental impact on plant life i.e. Forests/food/life.

ECOS welcomes the Commission’s initiative to empower consumers to play an active role in the green transition. Despite the clear preference of European consumers for more sustainable products, the absence of reliable information deprives from them of the opportunity to make informed purchasing decisions and fails to translate that preference into market demand and potentially market transformation.

ECOS welcomes the European Commission’s proposal on strengthening the role of consumers in the green transition, notably the ban on unsubstantiated generic claims, new information requirements on product durability and repairability, and stronger regulation of labels and information tools.

Priority must be given to any impact on Human, Plant, Animal Health whilst considering the climate. Without vital disclosure on labels, whereby should the information have been supplied, the consumer might not have purchased would be illegal. Examples such as when Anti-Biotics are in materials, products, foods, clothing etc.; when plastic as well as re-cycled plastic is in clothing, food etc.
