Dear ,
A crucial treaty on plastics and plastic pollution is currently being hammered out at the fifth session of the International Negotiating Committee for the UN Environment Assembly (INC-5) in Korea. As these talks conclude, we need the United States delegation to lobby for the strongest possible global plastics treaty. Such an outcome could represent an international and legally binding solution to the scourge of plastic pollution plaguing communities and waterways around the world.
That is why we are urging U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken to negotiate the strongest possible global plastics treaty.
Will you take a moment to help protect the world from plastic pollution?
We don’t need more evidence of the problem. We need action. We need the strongest possible protections, and we need them immediately.
We urgently need your voice to support the Global Plastics Treaty, which would:
Reduce plastic production at its source
Eliminate hazardous chemicals harmful to health and the environment
Ensure transparent reporting on plastic pollution
Establish binding rules for the entire plastics lifecycle
Provide funding to implement these measures
Support a just transition for workers affected by these changes
We have a chance to leave the next generation a cleaner and safer world by leading the global community in protecting communities and waterways from plastic pollution. Your action can make a difference! Join us in advocating for a sustainable future.
Take a moment and leave a personalized comment in support of the strongest possible global plastics treaty today!
With thanks,
Thomas Hynes
