Learn about this tool that allows anyone to assess the environmental impact of their consumption and join discussions with experts in the field.

  • Public debates

The Consumer Footprint Calculator (CFC) is a tool for EU citizens to assess the environmental impact of their consumption patterns - raising awareness towards a more sustainable lifestyle. 

This webinar will introduce the calculator and host a panel of field experts from different Directorates-General of the European Commission, as well as universities and think tanks, to discuss the relevance of lifestyles and their environmental impacts from different angles, including circularity, biodiversity, rebound effects and consumer behaviour.

Participants are welcome to join the discussion via the interaction tools provided during the stream. 

The link to the stream will be available on this page when the webinar begins. Save the date!

The CFC is an integral part of the KnowSDGs platform developed by the European Commission and helps provide a roadmap for achieving sustainable development in Europe, monitoring progress towards the UN's 2030 Goals for Sustainable Development, which are broadly aligned with those of the European Green Deal.
