Global Plastics Treaty now!

Plastic is full of toxic chemicals and it is everywhere. It is poisoning our health, harming communities, and destroying our environment and wildlife. Microplastics are in our bodies, from the food we eat, the water we drink, and even the air we breathe. And because over 99% of plastic is made from fossil fuels, and we keep making more, it is a significant driver of the climate crisis. But change is coming.

In March 2022, governments officially adopted a mandate opening negotiations for a global, legally-binding Plastics Treaty to address the whole lifecycle of plastics.

The fifth and supposedly final round of UN treaty negotiations  happened in Busan, South Korea, in November 2024, but world governments did not finalise an agreement. Instead, more than 100 countries courageously stood up against the fossil fuel industry for a strong treaty that cuts plastic production — extending negotiations into 2025!

This means we have another round of negotiations to fight, and momentum is on our side! The future treaty has a huge potential to put the world on a path towards a plastic-free future but it will be up to us to make sure that it delivers on its promises.

We demand an ambitious Global Plastics Treaty that:

• Cuts plastic production by at least 75% by 2040 to protect our health, our climate, and our communities;
• Ends single-use plastics, and harmful products and chemicals;
• Sets global targets to support a transition to reuse systems;
• Ensures a new fund that allows for fair and impactful treaty financing;
• Prioritizes Indigenous Rights and human rights; and,
• Allows for voting to take place if countries cannot reach consensus.

Tell world leaders to champion a strong Global Plastics Treaty during upcoming negotiations so that we can finally turn off the tap and end the age of plastic.
