Circular Economy Policy Timeline

We have published an updated version of our Circular Economy policy timeline for 2025.

The timeline includes updates for six key sectors for action, based on available data on the amount of waste or carbon emissions produced.

  • Waste
  • Packaging, plastics and single-use items
  • Food and drink
  • Textiles
  • Furniture
  • Electronics
