The policy brief from the Scientists‘ Coalition for an Effective Plastics Treaty discusses the role of hazardous chemicals and problematic polymers in negotiations for the global plastics treaty. The document argues that addressing these chemicals is essential for an effective treaty, alongside reducing plastic production and improving waste management. It also emphasizes the need for global rules that restrict or phase out the most concerning substances. This would provide a framework for global collaboration towards a more sustainable future.
