Tackling Plastic Pollution: The Global Treaty Breakdown

The first draft of the groundbreaking Global Plastics Treaty - a new law to address plastic pollution - will be negotiated from November 11-19, 2023. This is a crucial step in the global fight against plastic pollution, but what does this actually mean for us? We discuss what the Global Plastics Treaty is all about, and the major challenges that lie ahead in implementing such a significant treaty with Shantini Guna Rajan, a Policy Lead, WWF-Malaysia.
