European Outdoor Group (EOG) and the Sustainability Working Group
In October 2008, the European Outdoor Group formed the Sustainability Working Group, a consortium of European-based outdoor brands dedicated to providing relevant insight and solutions to sustainability challenges facing the outdoor industry and its global stakeholders. Incorporating a comprehensive lifecycle perspective, the Sustainability Working Group's key areas of focus are:
- Improving the ecological / environmental impact of the industry
- Ensuring the industry is up-to-date on relevant environmental and health and safety legislation as it relates to products and services
- Maintaining dialogue with relevant stakeholders
- Facilitating facts-based communication of sustainability credentials, including review of certification and labeling schemes
- Providing common positions on sustainability topics for the (EU) Outdoor Industry
