Global Plastics Treaty

Let's make plastic better, together.

Did you know that toxic plastic chemicals may be in the teddy bear your child cuddles, the mat they play on and the yellow duck they bathe with?

Toxic plastic chemicals leach from everyday products, entering your child’s body and increasing their risk of serious health issues.

This global crisis requires a global solution.

Change is already happening, with consumers, markets and governments choosing safer, more sustainable products over harmful plastics.

Know the health harms

Toxic plastic chemicals are leaching out of everyday products.

These chemicals find their way into your child’s body through the food they eat, the water they drink and the toys they play with.

They impact your child before they are born, while they are growing, and their future quality of life.

Know the Treaty

Change is already here and an ambitious Global Plastics Treaty is the best chance for governments to commit to protecting their citizens' health and future.

We are calling on global leaders to agree to a Treaty that:

  • Provides industry certainty through the comprehensive global regulation of chemicals used in plastics.

  • Supports a fair transition through a financing mechanism that incentivises innovation, remediates legacy plastic pollution and supports human health scientific research and monitoring.
