One of its most recent regulations is the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM). The CBAM is a significant step towards achieving the EU's climate goals, which include reducing GHG emissions by at least 55% by 2030.

The CSRD - Enhanced sustainability reporting in the EU

As part of the ambitious European Green Deal, the European Union (EU) has pledged to reduce its net greenhouse gas emissions by at least 55% by 2030, compared to 1990 levels. To achieve this goal, the EU will need to align its climate, energy, transport and taxation policies. The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) presents a significant step up in sustainability disclosures. Starting from January 2024, this new law will require companies to disclose their sustainability performance.

Forest, Land and Agri (FLAG) Sector – What Is It and How Companies Can Get Started on Emissions Measurement and Management

The Forest, Land, and Agriculture (FLAG) Science Based Target Setting Guidance is a pioneering global standard for companies in land-intensive sectors to set science-based targets that include land-based emissions reductions and removals. This robust, science-driven approach aligns with the Paris Agreement's 1.5°C goal, enabling companies to effectively slash land-related emissions. Companies falling under the Science Based Target initiative’s (SBTi) FLAG-designated sectors or with over 20% FLAG-related emissions are required to set FLAG targets. They must establish a baseline year, account for land-based emissions and removals separately, and trace primary commodity emissions in processed products.
