During Earth Week, negotiators from 175 countries are gathering in Ottawa to discuss progress in drafting a first-ever legally-binding global treaty to end plastic pollution. Key issues include goals for reducing the amount of plastics produced, and the role of recycling of plastics, including chemical recycling which many view as a form of incineration. Dr. Ahja Brandon, Associate Director of US Plastic Policy for the Ocean Conservancy, provides an update to Mark Dunlea for Hudson Mohawk Magazine.
