⚠️ EUDR Update: Potential Delay, but the Mission Remains Critical ⏱️ On October 2nd, the European Commission proposed a 12-month delay in applying the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) - a regulation aimed at removing deforestation-linked products from the EU market. Despite this delay, the urgency to combat deforestation remains vital, particularly in the context of worsening climate events. The EUDR must remain a critical tool in the fight against deforestation by enforcing traceability and mandatory due diligence across supply chains. This postponement provides time for critical steps: ➡️ Developing robust due diligence processes ➡️ Supporting smaller suppliers and smallholder farmers in compliance ➡️ Improving guidance and the IT platform for easier compliance Nevertheless, the delay should not be used as an opportunity to reopen the EUDR to new negotiations to weaken its core principles or undermine the broader Green Deal framework. We must take this time to strengthen the regulation’s impact, ensuring both current and future laws stay focused on protecting our forests and the planet. Reach out to the ASD team to learn more about how we support our Members in preparing for the EUDR ➡️ asd@bsr.org / asd@transitions-dd.com #EUDR #Compliance #SustainableSupplyChains
🚨 [The EUDR is probably delayed but still coming… Are you ready?] On October 2nd, the European Commission proposed a 12-month delay in applying the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR). The primary objective of the EUDR is to exclude products that contribute to global deforestation from the EU market. In the context of major rainforest fires and forests switching from carbon sinks to carbon emission sources, the emergency to better regulate products causing deforestation remains the same. ❗ While the postponement of the law is becoming increasingly certain, the real focus should be safeguarding its’ impact. The EUDR is and must stay a landmark regulation to fight deforestation by making traceability and due diligence across supply chains compulsory. Its delay must not allow the reopening of its substance to be changed, nor should it permit the weakening of the broader Green Deal legislative framework for both existing and upcoming laws. 👉 In this context, we think that the next 12 months – ‘phasing period’ - should be dedicated to: - The development and implementation of robust due diligence procedures, while prioritizing supplier engagement to prepare for full compliance. - The identification of the remaining bottlenecks, especially for smaller suppliers and smallholders who may need additional support to meet the new standards. - The improvement by the European Commission in the guidance, FAQs, and IT platform to make the DDS declaration process easier, faster and routine process. With the right focus, this postponement can be a valuable opportunity to ensure a more thorough and inclusive approach to meeting the EUDR’s requirements. ❔ And you, are you ready for the application of the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR)? 👀 Discover more about it - Take a look at our training: https://bit.ly/3BI3iU4 #EUDR #compliance #sustainablesupplychains

Like many of our industry peers, we're returning to our desks after a busy and energizing time in New York for Climate Week. Reflecting on all the enriching sessions – and looking ahead to the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) coming into force – we're thinking about how these two concepts come together. How will EUDR compliance enable companies to achieve and claim lower greenhouse gas emissions profiles for their palm oil and palm kernel oil volumes, for example? If you or your organization are working on this, we are interested to discuss. Let us know your thoughts, or do reach out to get in touch with the ASD team. #climateweeknyc #climateweek2024 #eudr #deforestation #climateaction

"ASD is cultivating a great vision and great ideas. We just need to be brave. Impossible is nothing." Those were the inspirational thoughts of one of our members as we all gathered in Brussels recently to mark the fifth year of the initiative. The in-person meeting in the Belgian capital was a chance for ASD members to meet, celebrate, collaborate, and plan for what the next five years will look like as we collectively raise our ambition to transform the derivatives supply chain and shape the future of the oleomaterials market. You can read all about what happened in our latest blog, https://lnkd.in/eRVzbxix

Today, we're reflecting on two years since the Action for Sustainable Derivatives (ASD) Impact Fund kick started its support for the Kaleka Mosaik Initiative. It's a project designed to drive regional economic development and sustainably restore landscapes in two of the largest palm-producing districts in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. A big thank you to our supporting ASD members – Avon, Clariant through its Foundation, Groupe Clarins, The Clorox Company, Croda, Croda Foundation, The Estée Lauder Companies Inc. through its Charitable Foundation, GATTEFOSSÉ, Haleon, SEPPIC, Stéarinerie Dubois and Zschimmer & Schwarz.

Before we get together later this week in Brussels for our mid-year in-person meeting, ASD is delighted to be taking part in the latest Sustainable Palm Oil Dialogue meeting. Organised by Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO), IDH, FEDIOL and APAG - Oleochemicals Europe, it will be an important session to focus on a subject much discussed by ASD and our members: emissions reduction in palm supply chains. We’re excited to be a part of the discussion and explore how the sector might work towards more robust greenhouse gas footprinting and emission reduction calculations associated with certified sustainable palm oil types – from mass balance to segregated supply and identity preserved. The ASD team – including Ricki Berkenfeld, Alexandra Kolev and Charlene Collison from BSR, and Lenaïg Benjamin, Sarah Ceska and Alex Guillet from TRANSITIONS – will be on the ground so look out for them and come say ‘hello’. #SPOD #RSPO #SPODEurope #sustainablepalmoil #certifiedpalmoil
