UNECE Protocol on PRTRs: supporting access to information on plastic pollution and promoting green and circular economy
The UNECE Protocol on Pollutant Release and Transfer Registers (PRTRs) continues to support actions to promote transparency in environmental matters across the globe. It drives the development of national legislation and practice towards a common set of international standards, bringing about positive changes that would otherwise not occur. Given complex global production and supply chains, adherence to such standards for PRTR registers can help reduce pollutant releases and promote a green and circular economy.
