Activists form giant sign to ‘end plastic’ ahead of UN talks

STORY: :: Climate activists form a giant ‘End Plastic’ sign ahead of UN plastic talks in South Korea

:: Busan, South Korea

:: November 24, 2024

About 500 activists, including members from the Korea Federation for Environmental Movements in South Korea and Friends of the Earth in 10 countries, joined the campaign on Haeundae beach.

The activists also marched down beach area with pickets containing slogans such as “no plastic” and “life in plastic, not fantastic!”

The Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee (INC) on Plastic Pollution will meet from November 25 to December 1 in Busan to work on a legally binding treaty that addresses plastic pollution, including in the marine environment.

Negotiators are working towards the first-ever global plastics treaty, which will address not just how plastics are discarded, but also how much plastic is produced and how it is used. The treaty could become the most significant pact to address global climate-warming emissions since the 2015 Paris Agreement.
