The Plastics Treaty

The Plastics Treaty is an international agreement aimed at reducing plastic pollution globally. It seeks coordinated efforts to prevent plastic waste from harming the environment, especially oceans, ecosystems, and wildlife. The treaty encourages nations to cut down on plastic production, improve waste management, and develop sustainable alternatives. Its goal is to create a circular approach—reducing, reusing, and recycling plastics—while holding companies and governments accountable for their role in plastic pollution. Ultimately, the treaty aims to protect the planet by addressing the lifecycle of plastics and promoting responsible consumption and disposal.
