CLG Europe’s Materials and Products Taskforce will host a webinar on EU Circular Economy Policy during London Circular Economy Week. This event will explore the European Union's commitment to a circular economy, a key strategy within its 2019 European Green Deal for achieving 2050 climate neutrality.

The EU's 2020 Circular Economy Action Plan is a pivotal instrument to mainstream circularity, reducing GHG emissions and benefiting nature, society, and the economy. European companies prove circularity is a viable strategy, de-risking operations and unlocking new growth.

Speakers include Anthony Abbotts (ROCKWOOL Group), Jørgen Hanson (Norsk Hydro), and Krisztina Zálnoky (Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership). Tahmid Chowdhury (CISL) will moderate the discussion.
