October 2, 2023

Fall is here! At last, we can wear long sleeves, sip warm drinks and gather around fire pits, all the while surrounded by the yellows, reds and oranges of the changing landscape. Here's to wishing you a beautiful season and hoping you enjoy those pumpkin-spice treats while you can!

As we wrap up the first three quarters of 2023, we find that October presents a perfect opportunity to review the worldwide governmental activities pertaining to topics in the mechanical and plumbing industries. Governments have been active on the topics of recyclability, refrigerants, water filtration, and product requirements, all of which, to save you time, I have curated for you here.

Scroll through the individual charts below to access additional data.


Keep track of agency activities through RSS feeds and government newsletters and websites. I recommend that you personally monitor the governmental activities, however, you may opt to request updates through your trade association.
