Negotiations between 175 states open this Monday in Paris to build a future global treaty against plastic pollution. They have one week to find common ground.
"If we do nothing, the generation of plastic waste will triple again by 2,060. Plastic pollution is therefore a time bomb at the same time as a scourge already present," says the French president, in a video message to representatives of 175 nations. The President of the Republic recalls "the objective of reaching an agreed text by the end of 2024"
