Waste generation is intrinsically tied to GDP & fast-growing economies are struggling under rapid waste growth.

We need to move towards zero waste & create more sustainable societies to secure a liveable planet for future generations.

New UN Environment Programme report out at #UNEA6 shows how ⤵️

The triple planetary crisis of climate change, nature loss & pollution is driven from a crisis of unsustainable consumption and production.

We must work with nature, instead of merely exploiting it or we won't achieve the #SDGs .

New International Resource Panel (IRP) data launched at #UNEA6 shows how ⤵️

“A lot of what we throw away is a valuable resource, so we must start rethinking the design and delivery of products and services to keep resources in the economy,” urged Executive Director Inger Andersen at launch of #GWMO2024 Global Waste Management Outlook at #UNEA6 .

Very happy to launch this joint publication with UNEP International Environmental Technology Centre

To keep 1.5C degrees alive, we have to talk about trash.

That's why at #COP28 we launched Lowering Organic Waste Methane to reduce food loss & waste, divert organics, and cut emissions from landfills. #GlobalMethanePledge
