Shaping Europe's Marine Policy and Sustainability
Ben Taylor speaks with European Boating Industry Secretary-General Philip Easthill about how the association works at the highest levels of EU policy to protect and advance the recreational marine sector. From lobbying in Brussels to translating complex regulation into practical steps for yards and suppliers, Philip outlines how EBI and ICOMIA are driving proactive solutions on environmental performance and lifecycle assessment. With legislation like the Green Claims Directive on the horizon, this episode explains why acting now - with data, tools, and industry-led initiatives - is vital to avoid damaging, one-size-fits-all rules and to secure a competitive, sustainable future for European marine businesses of all sizes.
