EU taxonomy: Expert report to tackle greenwashing in finance
March 5, 2020--The EU's battle to end greenwashing in the finance sector should gain ground on Monday 9 March when proposed rules on which investments should qualify as climate-friendly are published.
The report by the European Commission's 'Technical Expert Group'-which WWF was part of-will contain suggested criteria for the EU taxonomy-a system which aims to select some economic activities as environmentally sustainable.
Why does it matter?
If it works properly, the EU taxonomy will help determine the sustainability of all activities and stop financial players falsely labelling unsustainable investments as climate-friendly. For example, the taxonomy is expected not to include gas power and nuclear power. The taxonomy's classification should inform public and private investment decisions, and it is a new powerful tool to make the EU economy environmentally and socially sustainable.
