Just realized that I never expressed my gratitude to #Kenya for hosting #INC3! Thanks for the warm welcome and fantastic organization: 1000 x Asante! #PlasticsTreaty

Stillstand beim Plastikmüll-Abkommen: Alles für die Tonne

Plastikmüll bleibt unbeschränkt. Länder mit starker fossiler Industrie waren bei den Verhandlungen sehr präsent.

One day after what felt like a disastrous ending of #INC3, I think it might be better to be a little delayed than to end up with a less ambitious #PlasticsTreaty that will be difficult to fix. So, we will work hard and come prepared for #INC4! #INC3 💪🤞💪

#PlasticsTreaty #INC3 in Nairobi, Kenya concludes with no intersessional work approved, petro states blocking consensus, negotiating in what some call in bad faith.
New revised zero draft authorised to be prepared by the Secretariat by 31 December 2023 for #INC4 in Ottawa in April 2024

Scientists' Coalition for an Effective Plastics Treaty on health risks in Plastic packaging:

"❗️ Monomers are small #chemicals that are the building blocks of #plastics. Some of them are known to be hazardous to human health, and they are often thought to not be in final plastic products. But this is not always true. A published scientific review by some of our Scientists' Coalition members found that at least 22 types of #monomers can be present in plastic #FoodPackaging and transfer into food."
