The EPA’s Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) Toxics Tracker is a tool for monitoring toxic chemical releases and waste management activities in the United States. It offers insights by geography, industry, chemical, or facility, providing transparency and data-driven insights for policymakers, industries, and communities.

This aligns with the principles of the Global Framework on Chemicals, emphasizing the importance of robust monitoring and reporting systems to achieve sound chemicals and waste management worldwide. How can similar tools be developed or adapted in other regions to support the global goals for sustainable chemicals management?

Hello everyone!

I'm pleased to invite any Chemical and Waste Management CoP members interested in pesticides and agrochemicals to join the FARM Group - https://thegreenforum.org/group/308/about.

The Financing Agrochemical Reduction and Management (FARM) Programme is a five-year project; its objective is to catalyze a framework for regulatory and financial investment in the agriculture sector to reduce the use of harmful pesticides and plastics in agricultural production and encourage the adoption of low and non-chemical alternatives.

You can learn more in our first Programmatic Report: https://thegreenforum.org/knowledge/farm-programmatic-report-2021-2023

Pleased to lead a team that developed and delivered recommendations on Pesticide Regulations to the ??Department of Agricultural Extension.
While drafting the Rules, the team focused on safeguarding public health and environmental protection by incorporating international best practices for the country.

One year after its adoption in Bonn, the Global Framework on Chemicals (GFC) today launched a new fund to support chemicals and waste management in developing economies. Selected projects will receive US$300,000-$800,000 for up to three years to support transformative change to prevent and minimize harm from chemicals and waste and to protect the environment and human health.

Join the CoP discussion on Friday 4th at 14:00 CEST to learn more about the first call for projects due 31 January 2025: https://thegreenforum.org/event/launch-global-framework-chemicals-fund-…
