Troubling Toxics: Eliminating Harmful Plastic Chemicals Through the Plastics Treaty

The IPEN briefing Troubling Toxics discusses approaches in the Plastics Treaty to establish criteria for a negative list of toxic chemicals associated with the production, use, and disposal of plastics.  IPEN calls for a strategy that combines a negative list of toxic chemicals to eliminate from plastics with an approach that prohibits marketing chemicals when there is no available toxicity data.

Chemical Recycling: A Dangerous Deception

A new report from IPEN and Beyond Plastics presents a critical examination of the long history of failure of chemical recycling and the threats it poses to the environment, human health, and environmental justice. The findings demonstrate that chemical recycling produces large quantities of hazardous waste, releases toxic air pollution,  and contributes to climate change. The report debunks the myth that we can recycle our way out of the plastic pollution problem and supports the case for capping and then phasing down plastic production.
