World’s first treaty to curb plastic pollution hits wall
Orissa POST
|August 17, 2025
Delegates discussing the world's first legally binding treaty to tackle plastic pollution failed to reach consensus, diplomats said Friday, voicing disappointment and even rage that the 10-day talks produced no deal.
Delegates had been seeking a breakthrough in the deadlocked United Nations’ talks in Geneva, but states pushing for an ambitious treaty said that the latest text released overnight failed to meet their expectations.
The chair of the negotiations Ecuador's Luis Vayas Valdivieso adjourned the session with a pledge to resume talks at an undetermined later date, drawing weak applause from exhausted delegates who had worked into the early hours.
