Russ LaMotte to Speak on UN Treaty Negotiations on Plastics for the Association of Corporate Counsel

Principal Russ LaMotte (Washington, DC) will present an Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC) Environmental & Sustainability Network Legal Update webinar, "Update on UN Treaty Negotiations on Plastic Products and Plastic Pollution." 

Join Russ for an insightful update on the latest developments in international plastics treaty negotiations. The fifth session of the Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee (INC-5) on plastic pollution recently concluded without reaching a final agreement, highlighting the complexities and challenges in achieving a global consensus. We will examine what companies must know while developing their strategies in the face of uncertainty, including next steps in the global process, open questions about that process, and implications of the change in administrations in the United States. You will also gain insights into other significant international agreements and treaties that merit attention in 2025. Discover the critical role in-house counsel can play in addressing these regulatory changes, ensuring compliance, and advising on strategic responses to evolving international frameworks that influence regulatory requirements at the national level in countries around the world.
