Global Plastics Treaty: Why Legacy Plastic Cleanup Is Essential | Updates | The Ocean Cleanup

Negotiations on a Global Plastics Treaty continue this week in Ottawa, Canada. The Ocean Cleanup hopes for an ambitious treaty which addresses plastic pollution throughout its whole lifecycle, including legacy plastic already in the marine environment – from rivers, beaches and coastlines all the way to the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.
