Let's #BeatPlasticPollution!
To succeed in reducing #PlasticWaste, we need:
• harmonized plastic credits standards
• governance framework @UNEP
• bankable projects (de-risk investments)
• more uptake of @UN Principles for Responsible Investment & Banking to boost responsible business
#SEAofSolutions
@ASEAN @ABiodiversity @UNEP_AsiaPac @UNEP @Yuki_UNEPFI @UNEP_FI To tap into existing financing mechanisms, actions on #PlasticPollution must be integrated into the management plans of protected areas.
#SEAofSolutions
#COP26 was not diverse enough.
To succeed in financing waste-free future, we must:
Leverage broad portfolio of #InnovativeFinance investments.
Build price from bottom up. Include people. Ensure just transition.
#SEAofSolutions
"Our dependence on #plastic was cultivated by decades of #advertising, telling us what its convenience means to our lives. It will also take us decades of messaging to wean us off it." Dave Albao, Philippine Reef and Rainforest Conservation Foundation #SEAofSolutions
@UNEP_AsiaPac @IsabelleFLouis @UNEP @KASA_Malaysia @UN_SDG Also essential, is progress towards a new global agreement or instrument to address marine plastic litter.
This year, the #G20 agreed to engage in @UN discussions on such a framework.
This is a multilateral challenge.
#SEAofSolutions
@UNEP_AsiaPac @IsabelleFLouis @UNEP @KASA_Malaysia @UN_SDG The bio-circular green economy spelled out in #Thailand’s National Development Plan provides a framework to cut unneeded plastic production and innovate plastic-use for #CircularEconomy. To succeed, we need: buy in both from the private sector and civil society. #SEAofSolutions
@UNEP_AsiaPac @IsabelleFLouis @UNEP @KASA_Malaysia @UN_SDG Already, 22% of #Thailand’s banking sector committed to #SustainableFinance through lending and green investing, which we hope to double this year to match global numbers, with @UNThailand-@mofthailand support. #SEAofSolutions
@UNEP_AsiaPac @IsabelleFLouis @UNEP @KASA_Malaysia @UN_SDG There is no-one-size-fits-all solution for innovative financing.
Unlocking investment for plastics is key to achieving the #ParisAgreement goal of 1.5°C, wherein more than 450 firms with $130 trillion of assets committed to #NetZero by 2050.
#SEAofSolutions
@UNEP_AsiaPac @IsabelleFLouis @UNEP @KASA_Malaysia @UN_SDG Recycling plastics means a lower carbon footprint.
Recycled plastics lower GHGs by 30% compared to virgin raw materials. Huge savings in GHG release. A win for #ClimateAction! #SEAofSolutions
On now: moderating the session ‘#SustainableFinancing for a waste-free future’ at Day 3 of #SEAofSolutions @UNEP_AsiaPac, with 4 experts on Innovative Financing to reduce #PlasticWaste. @IsabelleFLouis @UNEP @swedeinth @KASA_Malaysia

Re-pollution. "It's polluted anyway. So people just check their rubbish in the waterways." Barak Ekshtein of plastic neutrality firm Tontoton #SEAofsolutions @UNEP_AsiaPac #plasticpollution
53% of plastic waste is not collected in 6 Asian countries. Need to create new market for non-recyclable plastic. #seaofsolutions @barakekshtein of @tontoton
Organised by @UNEP and COBSEA, the #SEAofSolutions conference is discussing strategies to prevent and reduce marine plastic pollution. Tune in over the next few days to find out more!

on a short break before moving onto the 3rd dialogue at #seaofsolutions. this dialogue clash dgn IAIS conference sessions today and tomorrow 😮💨
“Plastic pollution has been tackled in bits and pieces over the years. We need to address the gaps,” says @cherylritak, of Malaysia’s national maritime policy research institute. Malaysia — 8th biggest marine polluter — is launching national marine litter policy #seaofsolutions
We can drastically reduce air, water and soil pollution by curbing plastic waste. Join #SeaOfSolutions to know how 🌏 #BeatPlasticPollution
Curbing plastic waste is a shared responsibility.
Join #SEAofSolutions as we explore how we can shift the way we produce, consume & dispose of single-use plastic.

Delighted to co-organize
#SEAofSolutions w Gov #Vietnam to accelerate new solutions 4 combating marine #plastic litter. Huge opportunity for 🇻🇳 & @ASEAN partners to shift frm among world’s worst polluters to greatest drivers of sustainable solutions to end #PlasticPollution.
Challenge #PlasticPollution needs ecosystem approach, innovative partnerships bw producers, consumers, new finance sources & whole society effort. @UNDP🇻🇳 works ranges fr impacting nation'l policies 2support local informal #wasteworkers 2 ensure no one left behind #SEAofSolutions
4We were honored to be a part of the conversation with @UNEP as part of #SeaofSolutions to discuss managing waste issues exacerbated by the global pandemic and how to overcome these challenges through innovation. Together, we can continue forging ahead to #EndPlasticWaste.
Joining the conversation @seaofsolution: Collaboration, investments and solutions are critical building blocks to the path of #EndPlasticWaste Delighted to share our views alongside @WB_AsiaPacific Mona Sur @ADB_HQ Andrew Jeffries @UNEP Hermelo Bacani @OECD Anthony Cox https://twitter.com/UNEP_AsiaPac/status/1331424508029267973
"We need to strengthen the enabling environment in #SEAcountries in order to unlock finance. 💵
It's necessary to ensure linkages b/w short-term priorities & long-term needs & we need to be #inclusive of local communities to #BeatPlasticWaste."
