A final week-long round of talks on a treaty to end plastic pollution has opened in Busan, South Korea, with deep differences between nations emerging almost immediately.

The final round of negotiations by the UN committee aimed at addressing plastic pollution got underway this Monday in the South Korean city of Busan, with representatives from 175 countries.
