Plastic Is Forever. Nations Must Finalize the Global Treaty to End Plastic Pollution Now!

Every day, corporations continue to create more and more plastic. This is a fossil fuel-based product that never breaks down, and never biodegrades. It just accumulates more and more, remaining on our planet forever. That's why it's so important for governments around the world to come together and reduce the production of new plastic, to save our Earth from worsening pollution.

And after years of negotiations, an international treaty to address the devastating impacts of plastic pollution is finally within reach. But fragile progress and resistance from a handful of countries threaten to derail efforts that could protect our planet for generations to come.

We have to make sure that international governments finalize and implement this treaty. Sign the petition!

Without decisive action, plastic production could triple by 2050, choking ecosystems, killing wildlife, and exacerbating climate change.

Plastic pollution is not only an environmental issue - it's also a human health crisis. Every year, over 300 million tons of plastic waste are produced globally, much of it ending up in oceans, landfills, and even our bodies. Microplastics and toxic chemicals from plastics have been found in human blood, breastmilk, and even unborn babies' placentas. It also finds its way into wild animals' stomachs, inner organs, and even their noses and lungs, usually killing them.

This treaty is our chance to reverse this catastrophic trend. For the first time, over 100 nations have united to demand ambitious measures, including a global cap on plastic production - a critical step to reducing plastic at its source.

But a small group of powerful nations, influenced by industry lobbyists, is working to weaken the treaty, insisting on vague promises to "manage waste" instead of tackling the root problem of overproduction. We cannot let them win.

We must demand a treaty that prioritizes the health of people and the planet over corporate profits. The planet cannot wait another decade. Our future depends on what happens next.

Sign this petition to urge international governments to finalize a strong, binding global treaty on plastic pollution and actually enforce it! They must implement a global cap on plastic production to prevent further environmental and human health disasters.
