A new report by the Living Rivers Europe coalition “Industry’s role in water resilience: How some lead – and others wreck” exposes how powerful industry lobbies are actively pushing to dismantle the main EU water protection law: the Water Framework Directive, directly threatening people’s health and nature.
This new report focuses on how a number of powerful industry actors across the agriculture, energy, mining and chemicals sectors are lobbying the EU Commission to water down vital rules to protect our water in Europe through the Water Framework Directive. But we know these efforts do not reflect the entire business community in Europe, with a number of business and corporate players saying enough is enough!
