The Global Commitment 2022 Progress Report
November 24, 2022

The Global Commitment, led by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation and UN Environment Programme, unites over 500 organizations in a shared vision for a circular economy for plastics. Companies representing 20% of global plastic packaging have committed to ambitious 2025 targets to tackle pollution at its source.

This fourth annual report assesses signatories' progress. Results indicate an urgent need for businesses to accelerate action, particularly in reuse, flexible packaging, and decoupling growth from packaging use. Governments must also act immediately to promote high ambition in upcoming plastic pollution treaty negotiations.
