In a recent report on human rights and biodiversity, the UN Special Rapporteur on Human Rights and the Environment Prof David Boyd suggested the need for a global treaty to deal with the problem of marine plastics. In this short post, the One Ocean Hub wishes to share some comments from different areas of work in order to contribute to this important policy debate. To that end, the post starts with a few words about marine plastics and the treaty approach.
