Hi John,

Let’s talk about plastic. Plastic pollution is flooding our planet, and taking its toll on human health and the environment.

Thankfully, we have a chance to change things.

Next week, governments at the UN are starting the second round of negotiations for a Global Plastics Treaty. Will you join us in calling for a strong treaty to tackle the plastics crisis?

This treaty is a big deal and it’s crucial for world leaders to get it right. If it's ambitious enough, the Global Plastics Treaty could slash plastic production and force Big Brands to clean up their mess.

We know the harm plastic is causing to people and planet - yet big brands and oil giants want to keep making more. If the plastic industry has its way, plastic production could double within the next 15 years. [1]

Securing this agreement won’t be easy. The fossil fuel industry is already trying to influence the negotiations. Plastic is big money, and their future depends on pumping out more and more of it. Meanwhile, scientists and civil society representatives from nations facing the worst of the plastics crisis are being locked out. [2]

We can’t let this happen, John - can you help make sure all our voices are heard by adding your name?

Thérèse Coffey is planning to attend the next round of Global Plastics Treaty negotiations in Paris next week. We need to send a clear message to all our leaders: be bold and make these negotiations a success!

A strong Global Plastics Treaty would set legally-binding targets to address the whole lifecycle of plastics. This is our chance to truly tackle plastic pollution, and turn off the tap on runaway plastic production.

Let Thérèse Coffey know that a strong Global Plastics Treaty is what the people want, and what our planet needs. Already 340,000 people in the UK have added their name, can you help us reach 400,000?

With an ambitious Global Plastics Treaty, we can finally end the age of plastic. Our health, climate, and planet's future depend on it.

Let's do this!
