OECS making contributions towards developing comprehensive treaty on plastic pollution

The Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States is making a contribution towards developing a legally binding treaty to control plastic pollution, including in the marine environment.

The sub-regional OECS grouping has joined the call of international negotiators for an ambitious, comprehensive, and all-encompassing United Nations treaty on plastics that addresses issues related to the whole lifecycle of plastics.

The OECS says it is hoping that there will be, at the core of the mechanism, a ban on harmful plastics.
