🌍🔥 Climate risks don't stop at borders—and neither should our response!

Wildfires 🔥, floods 🌊, and storms 🌪️ can affect several countries at once. That's why cross-border cooperation is essential for protecting communities, homes, and our natural environment. 🤝🌱

Through Interreg, regions are working together to:

🛡️ Strengthen joint risk prevention
🚨 Improve coordinated emergency responses
🌿 Protect ecosystems and communities
🤝 Build stronger climate resilience across borders

As climate challenges grow, working together is more important than ever. 🌍💚

💜🌍 Young women and girls are shaping their own futures—and the future of their communities. ✨

They are learning 📚, leading 💪, creating change 🌱, and building a better tomorrow. Yet persistent inequalities continue to stand in their way. ⚠️

This , let's work towards a world where every young woman and girl can:

📖 Learn — with equal access to quality education
🌟 Lead — with her voice heard and her choices respected
🚀 Thrive — with the opportunities and support to reach her full potential

🤝 Investing in young women and girls means investing in stronger, more equal and more inclusive communities.

💜 Every girl deserves the opportunity to shape her future.

“I live in India where 45°C days are the new normal. They may be coming your way soon.”

From classrooms in Chennai to crowded urban neighbourhoods, rising temperatures are affecting health, productivity and well-being. But the solutions are not limited to air conditioning.

UNEP India Office Head Balakrishna Pisupati reflects on how extreme heat is reshaping cities and daily life around the world.

He explains here why sustainable cooling solutions like greener urban planning, passive cooling techniques and traditional building practices matter : https://www.unep.org/news-and-stories/opinion/i-live-india-where-45degc-days-are-new-normal-they-may-be-coming-your-way

Would you cycle to work on a dark winter morning, with snow and ice on the streets? ❄️🚲

In Umeå, Sweden, that’s a very real question.

So instead of simply telling people to cycle more, BATS partner Umeå kommun tested what could actually make walking and cycling safer and easier in winter.

What worked? What didn’t? And what could other cold cities learn from Umeå? 👀

📦 New EU packaging rules start applying today – but not all at once.

From 12 August, the EU’s Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) starts applying across the EU, bringing common rules to reduce packaging waste, boosting recycling and reuse, limiting harmful substances such as PFAS in food-contact packaging, and strengthening the Single Market for packaging.

What changes now?

🔹 Strict limits on PFAS (“forever chemicals”) in food-contact packaging apply.

🔹 Common definitions now apply across the EU, including for producers and other actors responsible for packaging under extended producer responsibility (EPR) schemes.

🔹 New packaging information and markings will help identify manufacturers and importers and make it easier to know who is responsible for packaging placed on the EU market.

What does not change today?

⏳ Most main provisions of the new PPWR will only kick in progressively and after 2028, with key provisions on recyclability, recycled content in plastic packaging, sustainable packaging and reuse applying from 2030.

🔴 The Commission recognises concerns about some implementation requirements, for example the requirement for producers selling across EU borders to appoint an authorised representative for their extended producer responsibility (EPR) scheme. We proposed removing this requirement. This proposal is currently being considered by the European Parliament and Member States.

🇪🇺 The Commission will continue working with Member States and stakeholders to support practical implementation. To support businesses, the Commission published guidelines on the implementation of the PPWR as well as Frequently Asked Questions. The latter was updated recently to reflect any new queries received.
