Global status in 2025
The UN Sustainable Development Goals Report 2025 places SDG 12 among the goals with 40–42 per cent of measurable targets off track, noting rising fossil-fuel subsidies and insufficient progress on waste reduction and sustainable resource management.

European and Albanian context
The EU's circular-economy agenda and the ESRS/CSRD reporting regime are converting responsible consumption from voluntary practice into compliance expectation. For a services organisation, the material levers are procurement choices, paper use and the integrity of published sustainability claims.
NOVARIC® implementation commitments
- Operate paperless-first workflows across recruitment, training and administration.
- Source PEFC-certified paper and materials wherever physical procurement is unavoidable.
- Apply the Responsible Procurement Standard, including supplier sustainability assessment, to all significant purchasing.
- Enforce anti-greenwashing claims discipline: every public sustainability statement must be specific, evidenced and verifiable.
Key performance indicators
Measured through the Manual's 90-indicator register (browse the full register):
- ENV-05 Paperless workflow coverage
- ENV-07 Certified-materials share
- SUP-01 Supplier assessments completed
- GOV-13 Claims-substantiation review pass rate
NOVARIC®'s anti-greenwashing protocol requires every public sustainability claim to be logged with its evidence source before publication. Claims that cannot be substantiated to the defined standard are withdrawn — the same discipline this website is held to.
