Plastics, people, planet. Hunting down toxic chemicals and #microplastics, sciencing for an ambitious #plasticstreaty.
In the brutal heat in Geneva [and the #plasticstreaty negotiations], everybody seems in desperate need of some cooling down.

Some hope needed for #plasticstreaty negotiations. This on is a piece of art I found at the UN premisses this morning.

Many winding paths unfold in the #plasticstreaty negotiations. This one leads to the Swiss Ceramic and Glass Museum right next to UN compound. Why not take a little break to contemplate other materials?

This marvelous Sequoiadendron giganteum grows next to the UN building where the #plasticstreaty negotiations happen. Strong reminder that some things outlast us, not only plastics.

Noting the usual at INC meetings, unfortuately:

The water containers in the UN buildings are made of polycarbonate, that is Bisphenol A, one of the very chemicals of concern countries seek to ban in the #plasticstreaty.

Tap water is perfectly safe to drink in Geneva.

And so it begins (and hopefully ends without too much watering down). #plasticstreaty
