Sweden: Environmental Law

The EU has the legally binding goal of becoming the world's first climate-neutral continent by 2050.

The European Union is a hotbed of regulatory activity, with new laws and directives constantly reshaping the business landscape. These changes can seem overwhelming, but understanding them is vital for any company operating in or interacting with the EU market.
