Recently, the top international academic journal *Nature Sustainability* published a "correspondence article" titled "Plastic Disposal: A Critical Climate Decision". The article clearly points out that with the breakdown of global plastic treaty negotiations, countries around the world are facing a neglected climate crisis: the final disposal methods of plastics (landfilling, incineration, or recycling) constitute a significant climate decision, yet their carbon emissions have never been formally included in national climate commitments. The article warns that this policy blind spot is putting global climate goals at serious risk.
