The Global Plastics Treaty Draft: A Betrayal of the Ocean
🚨 The current Chair's proposed draft text for the Global #PlasticsTreaty is nothing short of unacceptable. In trying to appease low-ambition states, this text has sacrificed every meaningful protection the Ocean desperately need.
What elements have been lost in the current text:
❌ Production reduction measures
❌ Bans on harmful chemicals
❌ Binding decision-making processes
❌ Ghost gear provisions - completely erased
The petrochemical lobby's influence is unmistakable. They've successfully watered down every binding measure that could have made a real difference.
The next hours are critical. 100+ ambitious countries must stand united and reject this text. The EU, Switzerland, and other ocean champions have the power to demand better - they must use it NOW.
Our marine ecosystems can't wait for "maybe someday" solutions. They need binding protection today. OceanCare is using every remaining moment here in Geneva to push for the treaty the Ocean, the people and our planet truly deserves.
