This infoclip shows what the housing sector in Barcelona and Brussels is like. The market for short-term rentals in Spain has been rapidly increasing, mainly due to the expansion of online platforms such as Airbnb. Barcelona is among the top city destinations for tourists booking their accommodation through these online platforms. (Source: Eurostat) While such rentals create benefits for hosts, tourists and many regions, the lack of appropriate rules also contributes to problems such as higher housing prices, over-tourism, and unfair competition. This infoclip also shows a social housing project in Schaerbeek, one of Brussels’ municipalities. Social housing in Belgium is provided by local authorities for people who cannot afford to buy or rent accommodation privately. Because of high house prices, people with low or middle incomes cannot access home ownership. The existing stock of social housing is insufficient to match the growing demand. (Source: OECD)

This infoclip shows in the first sequence footage of collection of unsold food (which otherwise would have been wasted) from a market, and in the second sequence collection of second hand clothes and its upcycling. With a Waste Framework Directive MEPs propose higher binding waste reduction targets to be met at national level by 31 December 2030 - at least 20% in food processing and manufacturing (instead of 10% proposed by the Commission) and 40% per capita in retail, restaurants, food services and households (instead of 30%). Parliament also wants the Commission to evaluate if higher targets for 2035 (at least 30% and 50% respectively) should be introduced, and if so, asks them to come up with a legislative proposal. MEPs agree to extend producer responsibility (EPR) schemes, through which producers that sell textiles in the EU would have to cover the costs for collecting, sorting and recycling them separately.
