GAIA INC-5 Wrap Up: At previous INCs, the majority of Member States showed willingness to compromise in the spirit of good-faith negotiations, even as petro-states used multiple tactics to delay and dilute progress towards a meaningful treaty. This time, they fought back.

The tides turned at INC-5, and the way forward to an ambitious plastics treaty is now clearer than it's ever been. Download our GAIA Impact Report on INC-5 here:
