"3,601 – more than 25 percent of the 14,402 food contact chemicals – are present in human blood, urine, hair, umbilical cords, placentas, and breast milk. Eighty of those chemicals cause cancer, decrease fertility, cause birth defects, or are toxic to humans."
The current dominant food system needs to go as it is just bad in so many ways. #capitalismkills #foodpackaging #PlasticTreaty #complexToxicity

The global treaty to end plastic pollution did not reach a binding agreement after a week of discussions in Busan, South Korea.
Concerning the reporting around the #PlasticTreaty in Germany the original source of the materials and hence the problem #fossilfuels was left out. The promoters of recycling and against reduction are also those peddling that green growth can avert the climate crisis
Micro- and nano-plastics in our bodies may be imapiring the #antibiotic effect of tetracyclines and increasing resistance to them

“More than 100 countries want the treaty to limit production as well as tackle cleanup and recycling, and many have said that is essential to address chemicals of concern.
But for some plastic-producing and oil and gas countries, that crosses a red line.”

Tiesitkö että kaupat heittävät kaikki myynnistä poistettavat elintarvikkeet pakkauksineen biojätekeräykseen?
Pakkausmuovi muuttuu mikromuoviksi ja päätyy biojätteestä tehtäviin lannoitteisiin ja viljelysmaihin. Lannoitteissa on niin paljon #muovi 'a, että sen voi nähdä paljain silmin.

Diese Woche habe ich für die @woxx über die #INC5 in Busan geschrieben, wo aktuell das #PlasticTreaty verhandelt wird. Danke an @MBergmann, deren Posts zu dem Thema eine große Hilfe waren!

A new analysis by CIEL of #INC5 participants shows „Chemical and #fossilfuel industry lobbyists outnumber the @Scientists_Coa for an Effective #PlasticTreaty by 3:1.“
16 lobbyists were part of delegations, incl.🇨🇳🇩🇴🇪🇬🇫🇮 🇮🇷, Kazakhstan, Malaysia.

After years of negotiations, a global agreement to tackle plastic pollution is within sight
UPDATE: see toot below
Tiesitkö että tällä hetkellä alle 10% muovijätteestä kierrätetään uusiomateriaaliksi!!
#muovit valmistetaan edelleen pääosin fossiilisista raaka-aineista, ja sen valmistus, käyttö ja tuhoaminen tuottavat jopa 19% maailman CO²-päästöistä! Eli muovi on iso tekijä myös ilmastonmuutoksessa.
#recycle ♻️
Kaikesta tästä huolimatta monet maat vastustavat muovia rajoittavaa sopimusta, lue lisää lehdistötiedotteesta: bit.ly/411JUfy
