EU nations reach major breakthrough to stop shipping plastic waste to poor countries
The European Union made a major breakthrough Friday in efforts to stop sending its plastic trash to poor countries. Under a tentative agreement, the 27 EU countries will no longer be able to export their plastic waste outside the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development club of wealthy countries. The text now needs to be formally approved by both the council representing the EU member states and the EU Parliament to enter into force.
