#PlasticPollution is flooding our planet, harming people’s health, accelerating social injustice, destroying biodiversity and fueling the #ClimateCrisis.

Governments from around the world are recommencing #UnitedNations negotiations for a #GlobalPlasticsTreaty — an agreement that, if ambitious enough, could dramatically reduce plastic production and force plastic polluters to transition to systems of reuse and refill.

#Plastik hat unseren Planeten überschwemmt. Wir atmen es ein, wir essen es. Es ist in unseren Böden, dem Wasser, der Luft.

Wir brauchen ein wirksames #GlobalPlasticsTreaty, das eine sicherere Umwelt für die nächsten Generationen ermöglicht.

#Plastic is a global problem that requires a global solution. Over the next two years, leaders from countries around the world are coming together to decide the first ever #GlobalPlasticsTreaty . A strong Treaty would give governments the power to hold polluters to account and would be a huge step towards a plastic free future. To UK Govt:
“Solve the global plastic pollution problem by securing a Global Plastics Treaty.” https://action.greenpeace.org.uk/e/854853/3J6gDDD/2v8ffh/1269019644?h=i70fz-nfn0qLFoLOVrIEk-K45e90ullgioowxHTE4X4 @GreenpeaceUK

Interesting new paper, highlighting the importance of addressing Port Reception Facilities in a #GlobalPlasticsTreaty to efficiently abate sea-based inputs of #plastic waste in the #Arctic and elsewhere. 🔽

«Das globale Plastikabkommen ist eine riesige Chance, um das Plastikzeitalter endlich zu beenden. Die Regierungen sollten diese Chance nicht ungenutzt verstreichen lassen.»

As nations prepare to meet in Uruguay to negotiate a new #GlobalPlasticsTreaty, a new study has revealed the discovery of synthetic plastic fibres in air, seawater, sediment and sea ice sampled in the Antarctic #WeddellSea. The field research was carried out by scientists from the University of Oxford and Nekton (a not-for-profit research institute) during an expedition to discover Sir Ernest Shackleton’s ship, the Endurance. The results are published in the journal Frontiers in Marine Science. #Plastic #Ocean

@greenpeace is demanding a #GlobalPlasticsTreaty and negotiations for it are supposed to start next week in Uruguay. I am looking forward to the outcome of this, the contents of the international law treaty if they agree to one and to scientific receptions. #BreakFreeFromPlastic
