Vues rapides des Conférences des Parties des Conventions de Stockholm, de Bâle et de Rotterdam, 2025

Following are excerpts from IPEN’s Quickviews — download the full document, below, for more information.

Convention de Stockholm

Three extremely hazardous chemicals/groups of chemicals — the pestiicide chlorpyrifos, the toxic plastic chemical group medium-chain chlorinated paraffins, and the PFAS chemicals long-chain perfluorocarboxylic acids — will be considered for a global ban under the Stockholm Convention. All three pose serious threats to health and the environment and should be banned. As safer alternatives are available for all three of these chemicals, no exemptions should be granted to a global ban.

Basel Convention

A Small Intersessional Working Group should be created to evaluate the effectiveness of the plastic waste amendments, to classify refuse-derived fuel (RDF) as plastic waste and not a product or non-waste. The Group should discuss assigning a new, specific waste code to RDF. It should also recommend controls of synthetic textile wastes, and remove the exemptions for certain polymers that cannot be recycled. Plastic waste technical guidelines should not be reopened and chemical recycling should not be considered as an environmentally sound technology.

Rotterdam Convention

The COP should follow the recommendation by the Chemicals Review Committee to list ten chemicals in Annex III, which would require that Prior Informed Consent is received before exports of these chemicals.  Also, the COP should not continue to allow countries to block listing of chemicals when the Review Committee finds the substances meet the Convention criteria.
