The EU is also tackling all those points you mentioned. Many single-use plastics are already banned in the EU, the EU wants smartphone manufacturers to support their hardware for at least 5 years, many EU members give out incentives to improve house insulation, EV will become the norm in a few years and energy standard get stricter every few years.

It's not like the whole EU legislative body is now pushing with all their might to ban phone chargers, it's just a single working group of many.

Perhaps EU should focus its energy and credibility on more important issues including ones you mentioned.
