Following Canada's lead the EPA's Eco-label Review Committee recently passed jointly developed drafts of eco-label specification standards for computer pointing devices and keyboards. As Taiwan and Canada have already agreed to mutually recognize eco-labels and inspection reports, passage of the draft makes this mutual eco-label recognition pact the first of its kind worldwide.On May 28, the EPA's Eco-label Review Committee examined and passed drafts of eco-label (called the “Green Mark” in Taiwan) specification criteria for computer pointing devices and keyboards. The passage of this draft formally inaugurated work between Taiwan and Canada on mutual eco-label recognition. With the popularization of green consumerism, similar eco-label systems are gradually being launched around the world. There currently are 29 eco-label systems worldwide involving some 53 nations. Germany has the longest history of using an eco-label system. Japan, the US and Taiwan have been using eco-label systems for about seven or eight years and about 80% of the remaining nations for less than three years.As green purchasing policies are expected to become a potential barrier to trade, the EPA has in recent years been promoting use of the Green Mark in Taiwan while actively looking for mutual recognition opportunities via channels like the Environmental and Development Foundation, organizer of the Green Mark system. The roots of the partnership between Taiwan and Canada go back three years when a high degree of similarity between the systems of both nations and considerable willingness on both sides encouraged them to explore the potential for mutual eco-label recognition.During the course of joint research, Taiwan's Environmental and Development Foundation and TerraChoice Environmental Services Inc. (the company authorized by Environment Canada to manage Canadian eco-labelling) discovered that mutual recognition would be extremely difficult due to different system guidelines and qualification criteria.
