In 2022, 175 nations agreed to develop a legally-binding agreement on plastic pollution - the #GlobalPlasticsTreaty - which aims to serve as a blueprint for the future, improving plastic circularity on a scale that wouldn't be achievable without a united effort from governments and international organizations.

In Indonesia, the Indonesia Packaging Recovery Organization, IPRO, is already making progress in developing a robust waste management program supported by SC Johnson, to help keep plastic waste from polluting their waterways.
