Environmental information systems
The European Environment Agency (EEA) aims to be a climate-neutral and resource efficient organisation and contribute to the European Union’s (EU) ambition of becoming climate neutral by 2050.
Our environmental management system, registered under the EU’s Eco-Management and Audit Scheme (EMAS), has led to considerable reductions in paper consumption and CO2 emissions from business to travel and meetings. The EEA’s electricity supply is also 100 % renewable and mainly powered by wind energy.
Greenhouse gas neutral by 2030
The EEA aims to become a climate-neutral organisation by 2030. To reach this net zero ambition, we are committed to:
- further decarbonise operations and improve energy efficiency;
- leverage the Agency's data, experience and knowledge to manage environmental performance;
- engage staff in the sustainable transition by encouraging them to share and implement ideas to improve environmental performance;
- offset CO2 emissions related to business and guest travel.
We also support other European agencies to embed environmental sustainability across organisations and operations.
