AGP Executive Report
Last update: 4 hours agoEU Enforcement Watch: The European Commission has launched infringement procedures against 18 countries, including Slovenia, over incomplete transposition of the EU “right to repair” rules—aimed at cutting waste and emissions by making products easier to fix, and also extending repair rights to indoor heating appliances. Industrial Pollution & Clean Air: The Commission also opened action over gaps in industrial emissions rules, with no EU member state fully notifying the revised directive—governments now have two months to respond. Ocean Monitoring Boost: Canada, the EU and 29 partners launched the OceanEye International Alliance at UN headquarters, pledging over €211 million (plus C$82 million from Canada) to strengthen global ocean observation that supports weather forecasts, climate predictions and coastal protection. Circular Economy in Practice: A separate EU push targets the “right to repair” directive’s rollout, while the broader enforcement wave signals tighter follow-through on sustainability policies. Slovenia in the Spotlight: The enforcement steps place Slovenia directly in the EU’s compliance spotlight on repair and emissions—key issues for greener consumption and cleaner air.
