Press releases

In light of the findings to be released today by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change that changes to our diets can substantially slash greenhouse gas emissions, a coalition of EU-wide organisations is calling for better ‘food environments’ in the EU.

Upcoming EU rules on data-sharing, supposed to give consumers more power to decide what happens to data generated by their connected products, could end up having only limited value. The European Parliament today unfortunately gave data holders too much leeway to restrict data sharing.

Consumers would get extra protections from their energy suppliers, according to new proposals the European Commission published today to revamp the bloc’s electricity market.

The proposals seek to address some of the worst effects of the energy crisis on consumers, when rapidly rising fossil gas prices sent electricity prices through the roof.

According to new statistics, 2,117 notifications were made to Safety Gate – the EU’s rapid alert system for dangerous non-food products – in 2022.
