This November brings the final negotiations for a UN Global Plastics Treaty, a once-in-a-generation opportunity to tackle the root causes of plastic pollution in a globally coordinated way. I was thrilled to speak to @BBCWorld alongside @CFigueres.

The Foundation’s new study on scaling returnable packaging shows what collaboration can achieve in tackling plastic pollution. By harmonising packaging and design standards, we can make the economics work, and unlock huge environmental benefits.

Today, the use of reusable packaging remains small-scale. Kickstarting a reuse revolution requires a transformational collaborative effort. We can now see what needs to be done to achieve it. Our latest study: links.emf.org/3MU6VsY @SYSTEMIQ_Ltd @Eunomia_RandC #reuserevolution

Five years in, the Global Commitment has shown it is possible to make meaningful progress in tackling plastic waste and pollution. But we have a long way to go. We need an ambitious combination of policy action and voluntary action to move further, faster.

The Global Commitment, launched in 2018 by the Foundation and @UNEP, has shown it is possible to make meaningful progress to tackle plastic waste and pollution. But, the world remains significantly off track. 1/2 ⬇️

If we can redesign our clothes, we can redesign our system – from linear to circular. We started with jeans. Four years later, The Jeans Redesign's Insights report 2021-2023 shows that other garments are following. Now we must move from product redesign to system redesign.
Ellen MacArthur Foundation@circulareconomy
Yesterday we launched #TheJeansRedesign Insights report 2021-2023, which highlights how #circulardesign can become the norm. But jeans are just the start. We need to close the loop and move from product redesign to system redesign. Explore more here: pulse.ly/6zj15n4g55

A #circulareconomy is driven by design. By bringing circularity into our designs, we can begin to build a better future. Our Adaptive Strategy for Circular Design offers tangible actions that help organisations create the conditions for designers to put theory into practice.
Ellen MacArthur Foundation@circulareconomy
Launched today. From ambition to action: an adaptive strategy for #circulardesign. To accelerate progress towards a #circulareconomy, we have identified six leverage points that designers can use to bring circularity to their concepts. bit.ly/3Tv1By1 #circulardesignnow

.@circulareconomy sees reuse as one of the priority measures in an ambitious, legally-binding #UN treaty to end plastic pollution. Individual countries and businesses cannot do it alone - they need global legislation to help level the playing field and overcome systemic barriers.
Ellen MacArthur Foundation@circulareconomy
Reuse offers one of the biggest opportunities to cut plastic leakage and lower emissions & pressure on natural resources. Compared to single-use products, reuse schemes can cut life cycle emissions by up to 80% & reduce pressure on natural resources such as water.

We know the problems: the current food system is a driver of biodiversity loss and a significant contributor to climate change. The Big Food Redesign Challenge gives businesses the opportunity to unlock solutions and develop food products that are designed to help nature thrive.

A legally-binding #UNTreaty - based on circular economy measures around reduction & reuse - presents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to end plastic pollution globally. We cannot recycle our way of this. INC-2 marks a major stepping stone in this process.

The second round of negotiations for a UN treaty to end plastic pollution start in Paris on the 29th of May. The negotiations mark a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for UN Member States to tackle the plastic pollution crisis and drive systems' change. links.emf.org/42slJVx

Our Food Redesign Challenge is a huge opportunity for businesses to design nature-positive products that not only restore nature, but regenerate it. By creating a #circulareconomy for food, we can eliminate waste, and return key nutrients to the beginning of their natural cycles.
Ellen MacArthur Foundation@circulareconomy
The food industry can make a positive contribution to global challenges. We launched the #BigFoodRedesign Challenge, to enable food brands and retailers to put nature at the heart of every decision they make. Explore more here: bit.ly/3BVo2or
