Sustainability trends and EPR requirements
March 12, 2025 @ 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm EDT
US states are imposing new reporting requirements, taxes and fees to curb carbon emissions and fund climate-related projects. The potential divergence between US federal and state sustainability regulatory regimes under the new Trump administration, as well as the difference between regimes in the US and foreign jurisdictions, is creating both challenges and opportunities for businesses.
Join Ernst & Young LLP tax and sustainability professionals for an update on the latest state sustainability legislative and regulatory trends, including extended producer responsibility (EPR) packaging programs, which shift the burden of waste management from consumers to producers. Panelists also will explore steps companies should consider taking now to prepare for required compliance and reporting.
The following topics will be discussed:
- Evolving legislative and regulatory trends in state sustainability
- Requirements for existing and emerging EPR bills and implementing EPR packaging programs
- Ways to evaluate reporting capabilities for effective EPR data collection and compliance
- Identification of key organizational stakeholders to enable a comprehensive compliance approach to EPR
