EU Deforestation Law: Extended Compliance Timeline Proposed
Last Updated: Dec 9, 2024
The European Parliament is considering a proposal to extend the compliance deadline for the new EU deforestation law by one year, giving businesses more time to adapt to its stringent requirements. The law seeks to prevent products linked to deforestation from entering the EU market, emphasizing sustainable supply chain practices.
While some lawmakers argue the extension balances practicality with environmental goals, others fear it could delay urgent action needed to combat deforestation.
