The negotiations for the #PlasticTreaty need to be rooted in #Science NOT furthering fossil fuel interests! @ciel_tweets with support from others analysed the provisional participant list at #INC3 which doesn't bode well...
NEW: More than 140 fossil fuel and chemical industry lobbyists have been admitted to participate in the #INC3#PlasticsTreaty talks meeting this week in Nairobi.
Thatโs more participants than 70 countries combined.
๐ขLetโs call on our governments to be the leaders we need & push for a comprehensive #GlobalPlasticsTreaty that caps plastic production and supports #zerowaste strategies. #INC3@GOVUK
