Global Plastic Treaty Talks Collapse Amid Deep Divisions Among Nations
Talks aimed at forging a global treaty to curb plastic pollution have collapsed after days of negotiations ended without agreement. Nations remained sharply divided over key issues, including production caps, funding, and enforcement measures. While some countries pushed for binding commitments to reduce plastic waste, others resisted strict targets. The failure underscores the growing challenge of reaching consensus on tackling one of the world’s most pressing environmental crises.
