Why are plastic offsets and credits a dangerous distraction from an ambitious and legally binding global #plasticstreaty? A 🧵 #BreakFreeFromPlastic #INC5

With only a few hours left in the negotiations for a #PlasticsTreaty, we call on courageous delegations to keep defending key ambitious provisions. @Dr_Uwamariya 🇷🇼 @sivendram13 🇫🇯 @theeco_nomist 🇵🇦 @OlgaGivernet 🇫🇷 #BeatPlasticPollution #BreakFreeFromPlastic #INC5

Day 4, INC5 - Diplomacy #101 We're on Day 4 of the fifth (& final) negotiations, and delegates are still deciding what the mandate should include. Every clause that addresses plastic pollution across its lifecycle? Not in the mandate! #PlasticsTreaty #BeatPlasticPollution #INC5

When the INC Secretariat and the Republic of Korea extended invites for the fifth and final negotiations, CSOs did not expect to negotiate for space as well as a global plastics treaty! #BreakFreeFromPlastic #INC5 #PlasticsTreaty

Let's remind #PlasticsTreaty negotiators: the full lifecycle of plastics starts at the point of extraction of raw materials. We want an effective treaty that addresses the root cause of the plastic crisis. #BreakFreeFromPlastic #BeatPlasticPollution #INC5

Last round of negotiations for a Plastics Treaty has begun! Would petro-states continue to block efforts to address the root of plastic pollution? Or would high ambition countries prevail? 👀 🧵#INC5 #PlasticsTreaty #BreakFreeFromPlastic
