Australia Joins Global “Wake-Up Call” on Plastic Pollution to Protect Oceans
|
Most of Australia’s plastic waste comes from imported plastic, which is now under closer scrutiny. The federal government has indicated that, in addition to regulating waste exports, it will start examining imported plastics used by major brands in their products and packaging. Environment Minister Murray Watt confirmed that Australia has joined 96 other nations at the United Nations Ocean Conference in France, issuing the “Nice Wake-Up Call” to urge an ambitious global plastics treaty aimed at ending plastic pollution and protecting humans and the environment from its most severe impacts. Minister Watt stated, “Countries are working together to address plastic pollution across its full lifecycle. This is within our reach, and there is no time to lose.” Plastic pollution has already had serious effects on marine ecosystems. In Australia’s coastal and offshore territories, the impacts of mismanaged plastics are visible, such as seabirds on Lord Howe Island found with bellies full of plastic. Although a global agreement was originally expected late last year, negotiations stalled. However, signatories to the Nice Wake-Up Call expressed optimism over constructive engagement by the majority of nations at this week’s UN conference, bringing hope for an effective treaty. Australia will join other nations in Switzerland next August for the final round of negotiations on the global plastics treaty. We pay close attention to international trends in plastic pollution and continue to implement plant-fiber and renewable materials as alternatives to plastics in our products, striving to contribute to a more sustainable planet.
