Wednesday that a global pact is the best way forward. \u201cThat strong international ambition gives us something to aim for and countries to cooperate with,\u201d Plibersek said. \u201cBy working cooperatively with Europe, we lift our ambition here in Australia because they have got higher standards on some of the recycling and types of plastics and plastic additives.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Plibersek said Australia would double its recycling capacity by 2025 by investing in 48 new waste facilities. The Australian Capital Territory, the jurisdiction that surrounds Canberra, will expand its ban on plastics from 1 July. Other Australian states and territories have developed a range of laws on plastic waste. In June 2022, New South Wales banned lightweight plastic bags.<\/p>\n<p>Western Australia and South Australia will outlaw the use of plastic takeaway containers in 2024. Western Australia will also ban expanded polystyrene that is used to pack electrical goods in cartons in 2025. Australian authorities have warned previously that the amount of plastic waste in the oceans could outweigh the fish population by 2050.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.voanews.com\/a\/australia-pushes-for-global-accord-to-curb-plastic-waste\/7116515.html\">VOA News<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/1-373\/\">Australia Pushes for Global Accord to Curb Plastic Waste<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[616,575,761],"class_list":["post-114575","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-australia","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-plastic-waste"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/114575","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=114575"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/114575\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=114575"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=114575"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=114575"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
