the final decision still advances key elements.

Among other measures, it invites Parties to consider comprehensive regulatory options for tobacco and nicotine product components that increase environmental harm.

Filters don’t protect smokers — and they create one of the world’s largest sources of plastic pollution.

At COP11, Parties are examining policy options to address tobacco-related waste and the role of filters in sustaining both smoking and pollution.

yesterday morning interview in German radio - about cigarette filters, but to little time for carbon footprint of the cigarette industry
👉CO2 emissions equal those of a country like Austria or Peru
👉most damages in tobacco growing (25%) + curing (53%)

Dazu gab gestern Unfairtobacco Projektleiterin Sonja von Eichborn ein Interview auf Deutschlandfunk Kultur. Jetzt reinhören! 🔽

Experts stress that the Global #PlasticsTreaty must include a BAN on cigarette filters to reduce plastic pollution and protect our oceans.
