Abstract

There are great expectations that the proposed new plastic treaty will be able to address the fundamental challenges of plastic pollution. However, experience with other treaties (notably the convention on biological diversity) suggest that there will be many difficult impediments to successful implementation. This article highlights a number of these, and suggests that far more attention will need to be paid to practical implementation that has so far been indicated in the negotiations.
