- Huffman, Whitehouse, and Transatlantic Climate Leaders Call for Lobbying Disclosure Requirements andhttps://huffman.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/huffman-whitehouse-and-transatlantic-climate-leaders-call-for-lobbying-disclosure-requirements-and-conflict-of-interest-policies-to-prevent-industry-obstruction...Notwithstanding the fact that just 9% of all plastic waste ever generated has been recycled [8] , since at least the 1970s the plastics industry has known that recycling is often prohibitively expensive and infeasible. [9] Nevertheless, industry interests have spent tens of millions of dollars on ads to deceive the public and frame individual consumers’ recycling habits as the key solution. [10] The United Nations Special Rapporteur on hazardous wastes called plastics recycling a “clear example of disinformation”, [11] and the industry has admitted as much: a former president of the Plastics Industry Association told reporters, “If the public thinks that recycling is working, then they are not going to be as concerned about the environment.” [12] Many of us wrote to you regarding the power imbalances and lack of equitable access for governments, scientists, and impacted communities at the third INC negotiating session. Regrettably, these disparities only increased at INC-4. There were 196 chemical and fossil fuel representatives registered to attend INC-4, a 37% increase from INC-3. Industry representatives outnumbered: The total representatives of the combined European Union delegations; The 87 smallest country delegations combined; The number of officials from Pacific Small Island Developing States by more than two to one; and The number of representatives from the Scientists’ Coalition for an Effective Plastics Treaty by more than three to one. [13] Fossil fuel companies and their industry allies have spent hundreds of millions of dollars lobbying the European Union and U.S. government for years to obstruct or weaken plastics and climate policy. [14] , [15] Companies attending INC-3 spent more than $85 million on lobbying and political contributions during the 2022 U.S. elections alone. [16] The overwhelming discrepancy between the number of attendees representing petrochemical industries, which have a vested financial interest in maintaining the status quo, and national and scientific representatives, makes it glaringly obvious how industrial actors’ influence could obstruct meaningful progress. ...
