8th EAP β indicator-based progress β 2023
The EEA takes stock annually of progress towards the 8th Environment Action Programme (8th EAP) objectives on the basis of a set of 28 headline indicators and corresponding targets. These were selected by the European Commission after consultation with stakeholders, EU Member States and the EEA, and they represent key aspects of the 8th EAP. They were outlined in the European Commission Communication on the 8th EAP monitoring framework .
RT by @EU_ENV: It is time to accelerate the transition to a more #circular Europe! π
To achieve this, we must move beyond the current strong emphasis on waste management and address resource #consumption directly.

Now is the time to accelerate the shift to a more circular Europe
Despite legislative steps forward over the past five years, efforts to transform Europeβs largely linear, βthrow-awayβ economy into a circular one will require further bold action and strong implementation of existing measures. Decisive action is essential to drastically reduce waste, prioritise reduction of resource use, improve recycling rates and improve the introduction of products that are designed for circularity from the outset, according to a major European Environment Agency (EEA) state of play assessment on the circular economy, published today.

Cutting pollution would significantly reduce heart attacks and strokes in Europe
Scientific evidence shows that environmental risks are responsible for a major share of cardiovascular disease, which is the most common cause of death in Europe. A European Environment Agency analysis, published today, provides an overview of the link between environment and cardiovascular disease, highlighting that addressing pollution, extreme temperatures, and other environmental risks are cost-effective actions to reduce the burden of disease, including heart attacks and strokes.

Markets for many commonly recycled materials struggle in the EU
Europeβs ambitions for a circular economy require the timely provision of good-quality recycled raw materials to manufacturers. However, according to a European Environment Agency (EEA) assessment published today, from the eight most common recyclables, only aluminium, paper and glass have well-functioning secondary markets. Lack of standardisation and competition with new materials are among the challenges for other markets, such as wood and textiles.
πFrom the 8 most common recyclables, only aluminium, paper and glass have well-functioning secondary markets according to our #EEAReport out today. Improving markets for #recycled #rawmaterials is key to delivering a #circulareconomy in the EU.

EU Member States make progress in climate adaptation to boost resilience, EEA review finds
EU Member States recognise the importance of adapting to impacts of heatwaves, droughts, floods, heavy precipitation and changing temperatures and of mainstreaming climate change adaptation to a wide range of affected areas like agriculture, or water and disaster risk management. These are key findings of a European Environment Agency (EEA) report published today which assesses the state of national adaptation actions in 2021.
