India clearly said that developing countries should get financial and technical help as well as technology transfer. The suggestions issued by the committee’s chairman Valdivieso include ideas like creating a global list of plastic products and giving financial help to poor countries to work on a global plastic treaty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Representatives of 175 countries gathered in Busan, South Korea to stop plastic pollution are not unanimous on many issues. Louise Wyse, the chairman of this dialogue on the UN’s international treaty, released a document on Friday so that all countries can reach an agreement. However, opposition to its suggestions has also started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There is no mention of setting a global target to reduce plastic production in the document. At the same time, India clearly said that developing countries should get technology transfer along with financial and technical help. The suggestions issued by the committee’s chairman Valdivieso include ideas like making a global list of plastic products and giving financial help to poor countries to work on a global plastic treaty. It said that plastic pollution is a serious environmental and health problem. In the fifth and final meeting of the United Nations Intergovernmental Negotiations Committee (INC-5) in Busan, a strong effort is being made to agree on globally binding rules on plastic. December 1 is the last day of the meeting. However, it is not clear in the document whether the international treaty should set a global target for reducing plastic production or not. The document also did not clarify how much money rich countries would contribute to the fund.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is necessary to reduce plastic production<\/p>\n\n\n\n
G. Forbes, who is leading the Greenpeace delegation, said that reducing plastic production should be an important part of the treaty. The spokesperson of the International Chemical Union Council, which represents plastic manufacturing organizations, has supported these efforts to finalize the Stewart Harris Agreement, but he wants to focus on reducing and recycling plastic waste instead of setting a production limit. On the other hand, petrochemical producing countries like Saudi Arabia have been opposing the restriction on plastic production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
India: Support for plastic alternatives, but not promotion of these products<\/p>\n\n\n\n
India, which has called for a ban on single-use plastic and adopting sustainable alternatives, said that it supports research and development of plastic alternatives and technologies, but does not want to promote the use of these products or technologies. India has also opposed the suggestion of INC-5 President Valdivieso to reduce the use of harmful chemicals in plastic products. India argued that the final agreement on plastic pollution should not violate other international agreements.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
