Australians need to ‘minimise’ the amount of plastic waste going into the waterways

Shadow Environment Minister Jonathon Duniam discusses global efforts to reduce plastic waste. Leaders from around the world are hoping to seal a landmark deal to cut the use of plastics. The talks for a first global treaty are being held in Canada. “Our waterways, both the oceans and the waterways that run through our land formations, are incredibly important, and we have to look after them,” Mr Duniam told Sky News Australia. “Water sustains life. “That’s the important part, education and ensuring we minimise that waste going into the waterways.”
