However, further efforts are needed to progress towards carbon neutrality, reduce air and water pollution, reverse biodiversity loss and consolidate results of circular economy initiatives.

This third OECD Environmental Performance Review confirms that Sweden remains a front-runner in environmental policy and has developed approaches that will be of interest to other countries. However, the report highlights that Sweden will have to step up its efforts if it is to achieve its ambitious environmental targets, including the goalof zero net greenhouse gas emissions by the second half of the century. The burden of achieving these objectives will also have to be more equitably shared to maintain the necessary high level of public support. The Swedish people have long placed a high value on protecting the environment. Relatively high income and low inequality have underpinned the implementation of ambitious policies by successive Swedish governments. As a result, the population appears to be more satisfied with its country's environmental quality than people in other European countries. Air and water quality is generally good. Less than 1% of waste is disposed of in landfills, while the rates of recycling and recovery are high. Protected areas have expanded and now cover 14% of the country's surface and 6% of marine waters. A notable feature of Swedish environmental policy has been the successful use of environmentally related taxes. Sweden was among the first countries to introduce a carbon tax, and one of the few countries to have successfully implemented a green tax shift by reallocating the tax burden from labour to environmentally harmful activities.
