Показать описание
Ellen MacArthur, founder of the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, and Christiana Figueres, Costa Rican diplomat and ex-Executive Secretary of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, meet with BBC Chief Presenter Sumi Somaskanda at New York City’s Climate Week to discuss the Global Plastics Treaty.
Listen in as Ellen and Christiana explain this once-in-a-generation opportunity to tackle the root causes of plastic pollution in a globally coordinated way.
Many solutions are known. Major voluntary efforts convened by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation and others have shown what is possible and the effectiveness of collective action. An international treaty based on global rules addressing the full plastics life cycle – how we make, use, manage, and reuse plastics – is the best chance we have to scale those to a global level.
The final negotiations for a UN Global Plastics Treaty will take place in Busan, Korea this November. Global rules can transform the plastics system to benefit people and prevent plastic waste from being created in the first place. Governments must seize this chance and agree to an ambitious treaty with legally-binding, global rules across the plastics life cycle.
This interview aired on BBC World News America on the 25th of September 2024, at 5pm ET.
