Abstract
[Extract] Negotiations on a new international agreement to end plastic pollution are in progress, with the next committee meeting expected to focus on the list of control measures proposed in the initial “zero” draft (1). The document rightly urges nations to channel financial resources toward environmentally sustainable projects. However, this treaty draft disproportionately emphasizes waste management investment and neglects opportunities for reduction, redesign, and reuse.
