Our planet
Our planet provides all the resources people need and use every day. It is our responsibility to leave our planet unharmed.
2022 saw both the COP27 climate conference in Egypt and the COP15 biodiversity conference in Canada – two important milestones for the preservation of climate and nature. Having assented to climate targets already in 2016, world governments have now agreed on 23 global targets for biodiversity. We welcome ambitious targets as these are important to shift perspectives, set commitments and drive change, and they require tangible actions.
Over the past few years, the EU has particularly strengthened its environmental regulative framework, launching in 2019 the European Green Deal, followed by the Fit for 55 package in July 2021. Elopak welcomes regulatory initiatives to reduce the negative impact of human activities on our planet and its boundaries, and we further raise the bar through our voluntary commitments.
In this chapter, we describe how Elopak works and delivers on our environmental material topics.
