  • The necessary green transition, linked to European agreements and funds, must be balanced and not choke the industry.
  • The new tax on non-reusable plastic is negatively affecting companies, who have paid 45% more than expected.
  • Many companies do not understand how this tax works and are asking for a reform.
  • Other countries have postponed a similar measure in order not to undermine their industries.
  • Spain, heavily dependent on tourism, needs an ecological transition that protects the sea and the environment.

Conclusion: The task of transitioning to sustainability needs to be cautious and inclusive. The government's ideology should not trump the reality of the industry, and solutions that benefit both the environment and businesses must be sought.
