The next European Union Elections are scheduled to take place between 6 and 9 June 2024. EU citizens will turn to the ballot boxes to decide which Members of the European Parliament (MEP’s) will represent and advocate for the concerns of constituents at the EU level.
Europe is one of the largest producers and consumers of plastics worldwide. If we want the EU to tackle the plastics crisis, then we need a European Commision and European Parliament that is committed to delivering real solutions to protect people and the planet.
Join the #BreakFreeFromPlastic EU Elections Campaign to call for a new EU Government that prioritises the reduction of plastic production, tackles plastic pollution and gives precedence to the health and safety of people and planet.
Last day of negotiations for the fourth session of the INC and we are making steady progress.
Will we have a mandate for intersessional work?

Eastman Chemical Company operates one of the largest chemical recycling facilities in the U.S. out of its Kingsport, Tennessee, plastics plant, where they use chemical processes to break waste plastic down into feedstocks that are then turned into things like water bottles, food and personal care product packaging, and plastic houseware.
Eastman Chemical Company says it is committed to being a good neighbor, and hopes to address concerns about chemical recycling by ensuring that their process supplements mechanical recycling, only reprocessing plastic to create additional plastic (rather than fuel), and utilizing these technologies only when they can help lower greenhouse gas emissions.
EHN sat down with Chris Layton, the director of sustainability for specialty plastics at Eastman Chemical to learn more.

Plastic pollutes at every stage of its life cycle and more importantly threatens the rights of Indigenous Peoples. We need a strong legally binding instrument that ends plastic pollution from extraction to disposal! #PlasticsTreaty #breakfreefromplastic

No time to waste 🗑️
For the last week staff and activists from Tearfund have been at the fourth round of global #PlasticsTreaty talks in Ottawa, Canada. Plastic waste is devastating the lives and livelihoods of those living in poverty around the world. This treaty process, with more than 150 countries represented, poses a once-in-a-generation opportunity to change this. We must not throw it away.
As the talks enter their crucial final day, please join us in praying that negotiators will make enough progress to keep the hope alive for a truly world-changing treaty on #PlasticPollution to be agreed by the end of 2024.
