We develop the idea of a #circulareconomy which eliminates waste and pollution, circulates products and materials, and regenerates nature by design.

The Global Commitment signatories are leading the way showing that it is possible to make progress towards a common vision in which plastic never becomes waste, but our latest report also highlights that the world is off track to eliminate plastic waste and pollution.

The Global #PlasticsTreaty currently being negotiated is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to transform the plastics economy and further incentivise accelerated business action in concert with policy.

As Global Commitment signatories, businesses representing around 20% of all plastic packaging reduced globally have significantly outperformed their peers in tackling plastic waste. https://t.co/MJie8I5MP4

If the entire plastic packaging industry followed this example, virgin plastic production would be 10% – or 35 million tonnes – lower than it is today!

Data and learnings from the last six years show where more collective action is needed.

This treaty is a chance to show that the world can meet a global crisis with a global solution and generate economic opportunity worldwide. Governments must now find a way to unite in ambition to get the job done.

Don’t waste this #changetochange

The last planned round of negotiations for a Global Plastics Treaty (#INC5) begins in Busan next week. Governments should seize this opportunity to accelerate global change towards a system where plastic never becomes waste or pollution.

The current system for making and managing plastics is not working. And so the system must change. A #circulareconomy that eliminates waste and pollution, circulates products and materials, and regenerates nature, will benefit people, business and the natural world.

The #circulareconomy can help #China ➡️ Reduce GHGs ➡️ Secure raw materials for #renewables ➡️ Increase economic resilience against #climatechange. Our new paper, launched at @COP29_AZ #COP29, includes targeted actions for policymakers: https://t.co/5GcUPsFnJI

To overcome these three hurdles to tackle plastic waste and pollution, we need binding global policy and accelerated business action.

Despite progress driven by #GlobalCommitment24 signatories, the world is off track to eliminate plastic waste and pollution.

Six years worth of data and learnings show us clearly what the pivotal hurdles are, and where more collective action is needed.
