Eco-innovation in practice
|
|
Zero pollution and how to achieve it
|
|
Mankind’s negative impact on the planet – and its health and environmental consequences – can be summed up in one word: pollution. Environmental and health policies seek to reduce pollution, often on a case-by-case basis, such as by banning or restricting a specific activity or substance.

EU SME Performance Review 2021
|
|
|
Increasing needs for eco-innovation: EU SMEs have stalled as regards their progress in the green transition, with about as many SMEs indicating they were offering sustainable products or services in 2020 as in 2015. Around a third of EU Member States do not have support measures in place to help SMEs comply with environmental and energy regulations and green public procurement is still not yet widely adopted.
