#inc2 is over. One step closer to a #PlasticTreaty . It has been an intense and good experience. So many things at stake with the plethora of interests and aspects. Now for the intersessional periode prior to #inc3. I feel so fortunate to share this work with the rest of @sciencecoalition.

o great to see so many @ScientistsCoa members and plan our work for the days ahead to inform the #INC2 negotiations for the UN #PlasticsTreaty! #Plastic #SciComm @AWI_Media

I’m at UNESCO in Paris this week for #INC2 - where the Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee will work on a global #plasticstreaty to end #plasticspollution.

Colonialism in the waste sector is evident in many ways. It can be described as the export of waste from economically powerful countries to lower-income countries.

Mayors panel on cities‘ actions on #PlasticPollution with inspiring cases from Mauretania, Indonesia, USA. Local action key if well connected to national and global level. #INC2 #PlasticsTreaty

.@andersen_inger: People are disgusted by #PlasticPollution, so the negotiations of the #PlasticsTreaty cannot be endless and we need ambition. A systemic redesign of the plastic economy is the DNA of the solutions. #INC2

Starting the pre #INC2 with @BCarneyAlmroth and Trisia Farrelly at the Paris climate academy. What can cities do for the #PlasticsTreaty?

Since unfortunately too few people are here from the #plasticpollution field to retoot, I am briefly back on the birdsite with updates/retweets on the #PlasticsTreaty negotiations in Paris (#INC2).

En route to #INC2 in Paris, I re-listened @plastisphere‘s wonderful #PlasticsTreaty episode. Just in case you want to catch up…

⚠️ "The key to solving the plastics crisis and promoting transformative change may lie in the South Asian region."

As countries prepare to meet this month to work on the first global agreement to end plastic pollution, the perspectives of South Asia must be heard loud and clear.
