And even if the treaty is signed…will it have enough teeth to make a difference to the plastic waste crisis that has persisted over the last decade here in Asia? In this episode, we speak with experts from Japan, New Zealand, and Indonesia about whether the UN can do for plastic what the Paris Agreement has done for climate change.This new three episode season is co-produced by the China Environment Forum with support from The Japan Foundation’s Center for Global Partnership.Guests:Trisia Farrelly, Massey University, New ZealandLinda Yanti Sulistiawati, National University of Singapore, Singapore and IndonesiaMichikazu Kojima, Economic Research Institute for ASEAN and East Asia, JapanSubscribe for Sustainable Asia latest episodes and review us on listennotes!Check out the Wilson Center’s plastic blogs and dialogues.
