Hmmm while I get your point, I was only saying that I have seen cases where the comments of proposals were seen by the commission, discussed further and then actioned upon. The most recent example that comes to my mind was the delay of the cybersecurity requirements within the radio equipment directive.

I did not say that public action is adequately taken into account and I am not privvy to what the direct intentions or submissions (on a legislative level) are for Fridays for Future etc.

I would however give credit where due to the EU for trying to actually force companies selling here to act in an eco friendly manner (e.g USB-C amendments, charger requirements, eco design regulation, carbon based price schemes). More is needed, but it’s better than many other democracies
