    INC-5: what's next for the plastic treaty? (webinar audio recording)

    The rapidly escalating problem of plastic pollution poses a significant global challenge, adversely affecting environmental, social economic and health aspects of sustainable development. According to WWF, if current trends continue unchecked and no immediate measures are taken, global plastic waste could almost triple, reaching approximately 1.2 billion tonnes by 2060. After intense negotiations at INC-5 in Busan, a plastics treaty remains elusive, leaving many feeling disappointed and disheartened. Countries have been unable to finalise a crucial agreement on addressing plastic pollution, after over two years of discussions. As we look ahead to INC5.2, what’s the solution to reaching an agreement? What can the industry do in the meantime to ensure progress on these important matters? Our expert speakers discussed these questions, the outcome of INC-5 and more. The panel included: Jodie Roussell, global public affairs lead – packaging & sustainability, Nestlé Richard Wielechowski, lead analyst on petrochemicals and plastics, Planet Tracker This webinar was moderated by Ian Welsh, publishing director at Innovation Forum.
