The Problem with Plastics
Session Description:
This discussion about a Plastics Treaty and eliminating plastic waste to help the environment reviews why a global treaty is necessary, what measures it could contain, and how it can be implemented. Presenters discuss the challenges posed by plastic waste created by consumer goods, packaging materials, and other sources. They also discuss how a Plastics Treaty could be used to address global environmental issues, such as climate change and biodiversity loss, through reducing pollution. The presenters explore approaches for engaging citizens, businesses, and governments in implementing such an initiative.
