    Love the fact that TLDR has been able to travel to all these conferences and conduct some amazing interviews this year. Excited about the future of this company.

      Sometimes I've the impression I'm missing some of their content. I didn't see any interviews from them (are they in their channels? I don't see any)

    • @tehpluto3594

      @ they went to both major political party conferences in the UK as well as several others. They have a few different channels such as TLDR UK, Global, EU, Daily, Business, Podcasts etc

    As much as i hate the word tariff by now, tariffs on plastics (especially when used in a wasteful manner like packaging) could be a way to reduce plastic pollution, since the oil producing countries aren't always the once to actually produce the garbage, but just prove the resources to create it.

    • @razorfoundation
      @razorfoundation 18 дней назад +23

      Not tariffs - taxes. Taxes on plastic. Plastic tariffs would only enable homegrown pollution.

      A tariff on plastic would only support your domestic companies to produce plastic and import more oil instead.

      That might be a long shot but I feel like this video (and ones on other channels today) have this format because of holidays and Christmas which works great as the team is off and can’t cover the actual news cycle day to day like they usually do. Looks like a win for everyone! Hopefully they get enough views to do more of this

    I know people don't usually pay attention to the goings-on of Paraguay, but if you want to be thoroughly confused and impressed (in the worst way) I recommend looking into recent developments around cooperation between the DEA (Drug Enforcement Agency, US) and the Paraguayan gov't. I've also never seen Paraguay's former president Horacio Cartes (our local trafficker/politician) mentioned in any TLDR video, which is crazy considering that his influence is felt in anything Paraguay does internationally, by way of the sitting president practically being his lapdog. Please, TLDR, I've seen so many backwater autocrats be covered here; spare some time for Paraguay, at least when talking about Mercosur.

    10/10 video! It was super informative and I’d love to see more like it. I’d love to see a video about the United Nations. I feel like the UN is sorta left in the wayside because of how ineffective it can be when it comes to global news. But it does play a significant role in global affairs despite that.

    Can you explain the need for complete consensus?
    It sounds obvious that if any one country has a veto then no agreement with any sort of teeth will ever come about.

    Whilst I understand that consensus and agreement are important parts of treaties, I do feel like progress is stunted if one party out of a multitude has a veto.

    It needs to be put in an economic way to get the big oil production counties to back it. The more plastic the more your populations will get sick. The more it will cost in heath care and the less productive your population will be. This will (along with other environmental factors such as air pollution, climate change etc) mean less money for the big counties that refuse to get on board.

    Isn't there a biodegradable alternative to plastic which is rarely talked about? It acts at least just like your usual soft plastic and it can be broken down in hours, contrary to the plastic we have today which takes decades to break down

    • @rickvrieling
      @rickvrieling 18 дней назад +9

      There is, but as far as i remeber that's only for soft plastics wich is already easier to recycle than hard plastics. Wich can't be as easily recycled and thus the type that ends up polluting the environment and breaking down into microplastics more.

    Any willing country should implement strict control on plastic production and levy high tariffs on countries with laxer laws.
    Or to put it differently: Try and put cost of environment damage to those causing it.

    Can someone tell me why the United States committee notes on the "INC" date back to 1991, and some other countries, too?
    Have I misread something and I didn't know how to properly manage it? As I was following the notes?
    Note, I have no knowledge in the field, so I don't know if the notes I was reading were relevant or not, but they were under the links of "INC5" on the official website.

      Economy.
      It's cheaper and safer in the extremely short term to make something like plastic than it is glass, which can crack and become a hazard to people both at the factory and and the store.
