== Description ==
EPR requires packaging producers to pay the full costs associated with their packaging throughout its lifecycle. It is designed to incentivise certain members of the supply chain to use easy to recycle materials for their packaging by making obligated companies responsible for the full net cost of the collection and recycling of the packaging waste they place onto the UK markets.

== Who must comply ==
UK organisations that import or supply packaging need to collect and report packaging data for a given year if all the following apply:

* Individual business, subsidiary or group.
* Annual turnover of £1 million or more, based on most recent annual accounts up to 7 April.
* Import or supply more than 25 tonnes of packaging to the UK market in the previous calendar year.
* Carry out any of the packaging activities.

== How to comply ==

# Understand if your organisation is legally required to comply, or if it is in your interest to voluntarily comply
# Register to the Report Packaging Portal and submit packaging data.
# Report packaging data and pay necessary fees mentioned above.
# Adopt sustainable practices by considering redesigning products and packaging to be more recyclable or use less packaging material to reduce costs and improve sustainability.

== Description ==
UK NZCBS sets out mandatory requirements for net zero carbon aligned buildings that enable the UK real estate sector to stay true to the built environment’s share of the UK’s national carbon and energy budgets. The pilot standard was published in September 2024, with final publication expected in late 2025. It requires the alignments of projects with ambitious carbon reduction targets, including operational and embodied carbon. It emphasises accountability through standardised benchmarks and reporting, pushing organisations to adopt innovative, low-carbon solutions.

== Who must comply ==
The Standard applies to those connected with the UK’s real estate industry. This Standard is applicable to both existing and new buildings in the sectors listed:

* Homes, Offices, Hotels, Education and Commercial Residentials
* Sport & Leisure, Culture & Entertainment and Retail
* Science & Technology, Healthcare, Storage & Distribution and Data Centres

== How to comply ==

# Evaluate your existing building projects and operations against the Standard to identify gaps.
# Implement energy-efficient designs, renewable energy systems and sustainable materials in new or existing projects.
# Establish a processes to measure, track and disclose carbon emissions to ensure compliance.

== By when must you comply ==
Final publication with timelines expected in late 2025.

Public sector organisations are generally exempt.

== How to comply ==

# Understand if your organisation is legally required to comply.
# Conduct an energy audit to assess energy consumption across buildings, industrial processes and transportation.
# Highlight cost-effective measures to improve energy efficiency.
# Decide on your route to compliance and appoint a lead assessor.
# Submit your report to the Environment Agency.

== Description ==
PPN 06/21 requires businesses bidding on large government contracts to have a Carbon Reduction Plan (CRP). This policy mandates that organisations outline their current carbon footprint and describe actions they are taking to reduce emissions, aligning with the UK’s broader goal of achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.

== Who must comply ==
This PPN applies to organisations that procure goods and/or services with an anticipated contract value about £5 million per annum which are subject to the Public Contract regulations 2015.

If the organisation is already measuring and reporting its Scope 1 and 2 emissions to comply with SECR, then the data does not require any changes to comply with this PPN, though it can sometimes require wider measurement of scope 3 emission categories.

== How to comply ==

# Ensure you are in scope and must comply with this PPN.
# Assess whether a bidder has taken steps to understand their environmental impact and carbon footprint relevant to the delivery of the contract.
# Conduct an emissions audit to create a baseline carbon footprint.
# Develop your CRP according to the guidance and templates provided by the government.
# Upload your CRP to your webpage.

Camilla.gogreenexperts: Camilla.gogreenexperts moved page Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) to Regulations:Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM)

== Description ==
CBAM is an EU regulation designed to prevent carbon leakage. This is done by placing a carbon price on imports of certain goods, ensuring that imported products face the same carbon costs as those produced within the EU. Carbon costs are aligned with those faced by EU producers under the EU Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS).

== Who must comply ==
The following must comply if they exceed 50 tonnes mass of goods in emissions intensive industries listed below:

* EU importers

* Non-EU producers will need to provide emissions data to their EU-based customers

* Customs Representatives, importers can appoint an authorised CBAM declarant to handle compliance

Emissions intensive industries:

* Iron and Steel

* Aluminium

* Cement

* Fertilisers

* Hydrogen

* Electricity

== How to comply ==

# Understand if your organization is legally required to comply.
# Check eligibility for free carbon allowances and prepare for phased reductions.
# Submit CBAM report.
# Integrate net zero strategies into your operations.

== By when must you comply ==
From 2027, importers will need to purchase certificates foes goods imported in 2026.

== Description ==
CSDDD aims to ensure that companies operating within the EU conduct due diligence to prevent adverse human rights and environmental impacts through their operations and value chains. Organisations must integrate due diligence into corporate strategy and consider the human rights, climate change and environmental consequences of their decisions. The Directive aligns with global ESG standards, meaning compliance can provide competitive advantages for companies looking to operate within the EU market.

== Who must comply ==

# Large EU companies with 5,000+ employees and €1.5b+ in annual turnover globally must comply from 2027.
# Large companies with more than 3,000 employees and €900m + in annual turnover globally must comply from 2028.
# All other companies with more than 1,000 employees and €450m + in annual turnover globally must comply from 2029.

== How to comply ==

# Understand if your organization is legally required to comply.
# Review and strengthen supply policies by engaging with suppliers to ensure due diligence standards are met.
# Develop a compliance strategy by aligning with already existing ESG frameworks for streamlines reporting.
# Prepare for enforcement and publish reports.
