Australia commits to plastic-free Pacific
Australia renewed its commitment and support for the work to address waste and marine pollution in the Pacific by:
- Joining the New Plastic Economy Global Commitment by the end of 2022
- Investing $16 million to support the Pacific Regional Marine Litter Action Plan
- Providing support to strengthen chemical and waste management through the Cleaner Pacific 2025 Strategy
- Upgrading recycling infrastructure and boosting circular economy
Let's hope this commitments will be followed by clear implementation plans
