💨 Abstract

The United Nations will hold a new round of negotiations for a global plastics treaty from August 5-14 in Geneva, Switzerland, after countries failed to agree on the treaty's parameters in Busan, South Korea in December 2022. The most divisive issues include capping plastic production, managing plastic products and chemicals, and financing for developing countries. Achieving agreement could be challenging due to strained diplomacy, with the U.S.
