Nations are crafting the first global, legally binding treaty on plastics pollution. Campaigners for the treaty are getting creative, finding catchy ways to put the pressure on to get a deal done at the meeting at the United Nations office in Geneva.

    Yeah I hope more people talk about the issue of microplastic. It is probably the second most urgent environmental issue, right after climate change

      Right. Thankfully there is a global plastic pollution treaty in the works and organizations, such as The Ocean Cleanup, that are working to rid the oceans of plastics.
