Despite the committed efforts of scientists, there are still many gaps in knowledge about critical environmental issues, especially research and data to enable global leaders to understand the magnitude of the problems and act with immediate impact. EA’s creative yet practical problem-solving approach allows for identification of these gaps and building a knowledge foundation that serves the needs of stakeholders across private and public sectors, as well as civil society.
The core of EA’s mission is catalyzing action for the changes the world needs to live in harmony with the planet’s boundaries.
This requires more than mere theory and science for science’s sake. Through our dedicated efforts, we strive to generate valuable data, innovative ideas, insightful analyses, and practical solutions.
We believe in the power of research to drive positive change, and our aim is to deliver actionable findings that empower individuals, organizations, and communities to make informed decisions and establish strategies and designs for needed transformations. EA research is ultimately designed to unite knowledge and action.
EA publications cover pressing environmental topics offering new research and actionable guidance to equip businesses, NGOs, regulators and sustainability professionals with data and insights that lead to direct action.
La date d’application du règlement est passée le 12 août 2026. Presque rien de ce qui réduit, recycle ou réutilise les emballages n’est encore contraignant, et la règle permettant de mesurer si les objectifs de réutilisation sont atteints n’a pas à exister avant 2027.
The regulation’s application date passed on 12 August 2026. Almost nothing that reduces, recycles or reuses packaging is binding yet, and the rule that will measure whether reuse targets are met doesn’t have to exist until 2027.
Amila Abeynayaka, PFN Scientific Committee member, explains what it takes to make plastic reduction efforts actually lower environmental impact, from composition to regional context to avoiding burden-shifting.
