Portugal's footwear industry is taking steps towards going greener, with 120 Portuguese shoemakers signing an agreement to cut the sector's emissions by half by 2030

The companies signed up to 10 commitments, including on energy efficiency, product design and packaging, and would be audited independently, the Association's Paulo Gonçalves told Reuters.

The new products and technologies often came with a higher price tag than older, non-sustainable products, Saraiva and Vieira said. EU Environment Commissioner Virginijus Sinkevicius told Reuters government support was crucial to accelerate the process.
