As UN talks fail to deliver a Global Plastics Treaty, what went wrong in Busan and what’s next?
What was expected to be the fifth and final session of the UN’s Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee met in South Korea last month, but ultimately it failed to agree a Global Plastics Treaty.
Instead of cause for celebration, our campaigners came away from the talks concerned that the process had been hijacked by vested financial interests.
In this episode, EIA Ocean Campaign Leader Christina Dixon and Ocean Campaigner Jacob Kean-Hammerson join Senior Press & Communications Officer Paul Newman to talk about what went wrong in Busan and contemplate what may happen next.
