‘Ending #PlasticPollution needs a #GlobalPlasticTreaty that is strong enough to tackle the immense scale of the crisis.’ #EndPlasticPollution Chris Dixon Environmental Investigation Agency #UNOC22 #UNOceanConference2022

With ⁦Environmental Investigation Agency⁩ enjoying a wonderful conversation about changing trends in conversations around #plasticpollution. As ⁦Prof. Richard C Thompson OBE FRS⁩ says: we have robust, accurate, reliable evidence on the impact of plastics. We’re at a crossroads- let’s take the right path!

We are greatly looking forward to the opportunity to bring our Global Plastics Treaty Dialogues to the United Kingdom (in partnership with the UK government 🇬🇧). #PlasticsTreaty #NoTimeToWaste

Following @DEFRAs announcement today, we’re pleased to see that the UK government is utilising the expertise of @OPLN and industry stakeholders to help shape an ambitious new legally binding treaty on plastic pollution through a series of UK Plastic Treaty dialogues. (1/3)

From National Geographic, the new CA law requires 65 percent of plastic to be recycled by 2030 and requires the industry to create a $5 billion fund over the next decade to help low-income communities impacted by plastic pollution. nationalgeographic.com/environment/ar…

From NPR: "For the first stage, [the Indian government] has identified 19 plastic items that aren't very useful but have a high potential to become litter and makes it illegal to produce, import, stock, distribute or sell them." npr.org/2022/07/01/110…

"NGOs want a ban on plastic waste exports by 2025, initially starting with an immediate ban on all exports to non-OECD member countries and mixed plastic waste to OECD member countries." theguardian.com/environment/20…

Great piece from Ocean Plastics Leadership Network #PlasticsTreaty about an academics’view on the #globaltreaty to #endplasticpollution. Sabine Rech was one of the participants in the Chile country dialogues organised by @PlasticOceansCL opln.org/media/how-a-ch…

To help inform the UK Plastics Treaty Dialogues, we are creating a cross-sectoral digest of domestic reports about the crisis. Read our first instalment to see how different stakeholders across the UK are mobilizing to end plastic pollution: opln.org/media/uk-plast…
