"It wasnโ€™t until recently that experts began referring to the plastics problem explicitly in human rights terms. A primary turning point was a 2021 report from the United Nationsโ€™ special rapporteur on toxics and human rights, Marcos Orellana. Over 24 pages, Orellana described how plastics threaten human rights at every stage of their life cycleโ€ฆlargely through widespread chemical and microplastics contamination."
