Environmental interest

Co-operation in the Nordic Region

Conservation, environmental care, maintenance of bio-diversity, the environment and health, and sustainable consumption and production are all high on the agenda in the Nordic Region.

Themes such as the environment and the economy are also important priorities. Consumers are entitled to safe, healthy foodstuffs and the best possible product information, e.g. through labelling initiatives such as the Swan, the Nordic environmental logo.

Nordic co-operation is based on the principle of Nordic synergy, which means that the countries work together whenever doing so will yield better results or save more resources than a unilateral or bilateral approach. The co-operation may consist of dividing the work between countries or working together in an agreed direction.
