Over 100 countries back plastic treaty caps as talks reach fierce finish The hoped-for treaty to come out of these talks could be the most significant deal relating to environmental protection as well as climate-warming emissions since the 2015 Paris Agreement.

We don't have a plastics treaty. More than 100 nations wanted to cap plastic production while a handful of oil-producers were prepared only to target waste.

I wasn’t expecting those sorts here!! haha Silly me!
