Here are our non-negotiable terms to ensure this treaty is as effective as possible:
|
| | This is HUGE, Greenpeacer: | Next month, world leaders will gather in Busan, South Korea, for the fifth and final round of U.N. Global Plastics Treaty negotiations — a once-in-a-generation opportunity to end the toxic plastics lifecycle, which could make or break our planet's livable future. | Greenpeace USA (including me!) will be there, fighting harder than ever to close out this meeting with a bold plan to prioritize people over polluters and stop the worst impacts of the climate crisis. | But the agents of climate chaos, oil and plastics industries and big consumer brands like Unilever, will be there too — so we need at least 50,000 grassroots Greenpeacers in solidarity to keep up the pressure, and I'm counting on you to be one of them. | If you're already on board, click here to add your name to the pledge now — but if you're still unsure about the plan, here are the non-negotiable demands we're bringing to the table to ensure this treaty is as effective as possible: | | As long as the final draft fosters these key objectives, the treaty will be strong enough to shut off the plastics tap permanently. | But that's the thing: after attending the last couple of negotiation rounds, I witnessed just how easily industrial interests can send things spiraling out of control and off-topic. | It's going to take a massive collective effort to hold world leaders' feet to the fire and get them to come together around an effective, legally binding Global Plastics Treaty — and right now, I'm worried we won't be heard over the noise of corporate naysayers and climate deniers without your voice added to our call. | So now that you know the plan, Greenpeacer, if you're with us in the fight to turn off the plastics tap, will you sign the pledge demanding world leaders settle on an ambitious, legally binding agreement to end the age of plastics for good? | | Let's make plastics pollution a thing of the past, | Lisa Ramsden Senior Oceans Campaigner, Greenpeace USA | | | | | | |
