Today, the world&#8217;s oceans are invaded by 11 million tons of plastic waste every year. And the amount could triple by 2040.

But one thing is for sure: the rules set will promote the adoption of reuse-based solutions. The transition to a circular economy &#8211; the UN <a href=\"https:\/\/www.resourcepanel.org\/reports\/policy-options-eliminate-additional-marine-plastic-litter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">says<\/a> &#8211; <strong>can reduce by more than 80% the inflow of plastic to the oceans<\/strong>. It also leads to a 55% drop in the production of new material and a 25% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. This could help governments to save an estimated $70 billion over the next eight years.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is the most significant environmental multilateral deal since the Paris accord. It is an insurance policy for this generation and future ones, so they may live with plastic and not be doomed by it,&#8221; said <strong>Inger Andersen<\/strong>, executive director of UNEP. &#8220;In parallel to negotiations over an international binding agreement&#8221;, ha aggiunto, &#8220;UNEP will work with any willing government and business across the value chain to shift away from single-use plastics&#8221;.
