EDC-Free Europe & Green 10 urge EU Commission for plans on non-toxic environment

The EDC-Free Europe campaign and the Green 10 – a coalition of ten of the largest environmental organisations and networks active on the European level – urge the EU Commission to deliver on its promise to publish its 2018 plans for a non-toxic environment and to go EDC-free. 

A European non-toxic environment strategy is urgently needed to dramatically reduce Europeans’ exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals. Such a strategy is essential for driving innovation and the development of sustainable substitutes including non-chemical solutions, and is a prerequisite for an effective and safe non-toxic circular economy.

The EDC-Free Europe and Green 10 letter is available online.

Air pollution remains the largest environmental health risk for people in the EU, and more action to tackle it at the source is urgently needed, according to the 2025 edition of the Air Quality Status report by the European Environment Agency (EEA). As more health protective clean air standards will apply as of 2030, HEAL urges national and city authorities to step up on clean air measures, as progress has been too slow.
