To deliver a world without plastic pollution, industry and policymakers need to take urgent action to tackle the problem at its source. The Global Commitment unites more than 500 organisations behind concrete 2025 targets to eliminate the plastic items we don’t need; innovate so all plastics we do need are designed to be safely reused, recycled, or composted; and circulate everything we use to keep it in the economy and out of the environment. This second report, like the first, provides a quantitative and qualitative assessment of progress made across the signatory group and the actions they have taken to realise their 2025 commitments and targets over the last year. Due to the timing of reporting cycles, most quantitative data provided by business signatories in this reporting cycle is for 2019 and aggregated statistics are therefore referred to throughout the report as 2019 data, with data submitted in the 2019 reporting cycle referred to as 2018 data. References throughout the report to “%s of signatories” refer to the percentage of reporting signatories.
