Preventing Plastic Pollution with a Global Plastic Treaty and Public-private Partnership for the Climate

Publikation: Bidrag til tidsskriftTidsskriftartikelForskningpeer review

Abstract

Reducing the use of plastic is essential because plastic production involves an enormous use of energy and resources, which results in a high amount of carbon emissions that contribute to global warming. This article focuses on regulations concerning plastic, particularly, the coming global Plastic Treaty, which the UN is expected to adopt in 2024. The article argues that regulation will not be enough to solve the issue of plastic pollution; innovative and alternative solutions are necessary. The article further suggests public-private partnerships for the climate as a way of supporting the coming Plastic Treaty.
