Had a good time repping @EIA_News on @SkyNews Climate Show talking to @tomheapmedia about my fave topic - you guessed it - the #PlasticsTreaty. Great to deep dive on the plastics and climate links, recycling, reuse and more! 📺 Watch from ~13mins in: https://t.co/UGnWWGqP5p

In the last couple of years this platform has become a toxic cesspit, promoting some of the worst politics and values. I can't bring myself to delete my account 🙈 but for months my campaign chat (mostly #PlasticsTreaty) has moved over to LinkedIn. Hope to see you there 🩷

Another great piece by @josephbwinters from @grist looking at the latest #PlasticsTreaty developments. Time to see the US sign the Bridge to Busan and start defending production controls in the negotiations, I think. 👀 All eyes across the pond https://t.co/B5iypLpsB7

👀 Great article from @joeloyo at @ClimateHome on latest developments on the #PlasticsTreaty https://t.co/NbRdLEfuX4

🚨 New position paper on contamination of agricultural sewage sludge🚨 Today @FidraTweets @EIA_News and others are calling for urgent regulation on agricultural sewage sludge use due to harmful #microplastics and #PFAS contaminants https://t.co/Cr0Yu2Rszm #CircularEconomy

“If essential elements such as constraints on plastics production are not included...the magnitude of that mistake will only become more glaring by the day" - Federated States of Micronesia #PlasticsTreaty https://t.co/OM80dBg2LH

Great reporting as always from @EmmaSAanne covering some of the key themes to emerge from the most recent round of #PlasticsTreaty talks. From consensus to production caps and the Bridge to Busan, this round up hits the key points from #INC4 cc @EIA_News

Me once again asking how we can actually end plastic pollution if we don't talk about producing less plastic 🙃 ...The perennial question of the #PlasticsTreaty negotiations explored in this nice article in @REvents_SustBiz , also feat @oceanegger 👇 https://t.co/IKn9XvYiKn

📺My colleague @KimODowd9 slaying this intervention at @HLEnviroClimate on what the UK needs to do on methane emissions 👇

For #PlasticsTreaty & #INC4 people! Ready for #INC5? China-France statement apparently includes a few interesting lines which are worth your attention. Let me dive in a bit... https://t.co/9fZyVyBoOd

💡How we break free from brackets and avoid a lowest common denominator #PlasticsTreaty is currently the biggest consideration. @magnuslovold has covered this well here: https://t.co/uNatfjN4lM

For a strong outcome we need (amongst other things) 👉Formal and informal intersessional work across lifecycle & on finance 👉Political commitment on production 👉Inclusion of underrepresented voices in the corridor deals and prep process (e.g. SIDS, indigenous communities)

This @guardian article provides a good round up of where things were left, in particular the comments from @ciel_tweets ring true on countries caving as soon as they get a sideways look from big polluters https://t.co/dVZkXKHnY8

Rwanda 🇷🇼 and Peru 🇵🇪once again were pushing on need to address production and proposed clear recommendations. While originally they had support, this wavered completely on the final night, meaning a compromise to work on other topics left production out https://t.co/rLottvGPS0

Important to see mainstream news coverage of the negotiations - also with a framing on health and overproduction. I urge all media outlets to turn attention to what is happening in the #PlasticsTreaty negotiations as we head to Busan. https://t.co/NG0rV111XO

Pacific Small Island Developing states, particularly 🇫🇯 and🇨🇰 led from the front on climate and plastics links and the need for an ambitious pathway. Special circumstances of SIDS are real and must be taken into consideration. Always in awe of @sivendram13 😍 📸K Worth/ENB

Indigenous People were at forefront in highlighting impacts to their communities. In particular Aamjiwnaang First Nation declared a state of emergency during #INC4 due to plastics emissions - a major reality check for those trying to push production out https://t.co/wAMRw5ZVQL

We also saw big lobbyist presence, not just the industry delegates outnumbering many country delegations but also intimidation of scientists and pro-plastics adverts blanketing the city. @joeloyo at @ClimateHome covered this well 👇 https://t.co/bXLujSnJMF 📸K Worth / ENB

‼️Whether we get that political commitment relies on intersessional attention, yet no mandate was agreed to work on production before Busan. Thus, we rely on the countries that are signing the 'Bridge to Busan' declaration to maintain this pressure https://t.co/hFxd9ZMAhV

👍Delegates negotiated text on plastics production - it remains on the table 👎 But as I told @josephbwinters at @grist - whether we end up with a treaty that deals with production at this stage is a matter of political commitment https://t.co/5fCCfd6AcE

Alright! Finally had a big nap and ready to reflect on #PlasticsTreaty #INC4. Here's my thread 🧵 of the highs and lows, but firstly, a big shout out to the @EIA_News team that grafted around the clock on advocacy, strategy and content. Am in awe of my colleagues 😍
