dc.descriptionThis open letter calls on negotiators of the plastics treaty to prohibit all cigarette filters and align the instrument with the World Health Organization Framework Convention on Tobacco Control. It states that filters are toxic single-use plastics without proven health benefit and contribute to pollution and misinformation. The letter criticises industry promotion of biodegradable alternatives and clean-up campaigns as greenwashing, rejects extended producer responsibility schemes linked to corporate social responsibility, and demands explicit safeguards against industry interference and clear liability for harms
