EU energy and climate legislation sets the pace for decarbonising our economy. Some of these laws contain EU targets. The governance law helps Member States deliver these targets and defines reporting obligations. This should result in consumers benefitting from lower bills, a better quality of life, and a future for our planet. Practically this means more renewable energy, less imports of volatile fossil fuels, continuous efforts to use energy more efficiently, the availability of sustainable products that can be recognised via clear labels, a variety of green mobility choices, and a future where healthy and sustainable foods are accessible and affordable.

The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) affects almost every aspect of the European food system. Its design influences what is economically viable for farmers, how markets respond to shocks, what foods are available to consumers and at what price. Consumers recognise the importance of income support for farmers, but they want the CAP to go beyond agricultural policies.

The EU digital rulebook has been designed to protect consumers’ data and privacy in the new digital economy. At the core of it, there is a careful balance of interests which the EU’s Digital Omnibus now risks overturning. This balance should be protected and even strengthened to protect consumers’ fundamental rights and freedoms. The proposed reform of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) goes beyond simplification and will expose consumers to unnecessary risks and compromise essential protections, including the right to effective judicial remedy, and erode trust in digital products and services.
