Environmental Reports and Surpluses by EU Zones

P7CO® EcoResupply applies a regional division of the European Union (EU27) to structure environmental reports (illegal dumping, pollution, regulatory breaches) and surpluses (reusable materials, valuable waste, end-of-life products).
This model improves comparability across countries, ensures statistical consistency, and supports Eurostat and EU reporting.

Defined Zones

Northern Zone

Profile: High recycling rates, active civic participation, advanced environmental policies.

  • Reports: marine pollution, cross-border waste transport, forestry issues.
  • Surpluses: wood, plastics, recyclable metals.

    • 🇱🇻 Latvia (LV)
    • 🇱🇹 Lithuania (LT)

Western Zone

Profile: Highly industrialized economies with strong innovation and large volumes of technological waste.

  • Reports: industrial emissions, air pollution, non-compliance with regulations.
  • Surpluses: chemicals, machinery, electronics.
  • Countries:
    • 🇩🇪 Germany (DE)
    • 🇫🇷 France (FR)

Insular / Atlantic Zone

Profile: Island regions with logistical challenges and focus on self-sufficiency.

  • Reports: illegal waste exports, coastal pollution.
  • Surpluses: agricultural and technological residues.
  • Countries:
    • 🇮🇪 Ireland (IE)

Benefits of the Classification

  • Regional comparison: detect trends in reports and surpluses.
  • Statistical alignment: compatible with Eurostat methodologies.
  • Strategic planning: support for governments, municipalities, and businesses.
  • Transparency: data accessible to citizens, companies, and institutions.

Next Steps

P7CO® EcoResupply will:

  • Provide interactive maps linking reports and surplus flows.
  • Publish regional comparison reports for the EU27.
  • Develop dashboards for citizens, companies, and policymakers.
  • Issue digital certificates of circularity per zone.
