The message 'between the lines' is that people in the rich Western countries should stop using plastic.

But these countries generally have very rates of plastic disposal directly into the environment (well, now that we've dropped the habit of shipping plastic waste to poor countries for 'recycling', which always actually meant 'dumping').

The problem, of rampant population growth in poor countries without any environmental concerns, is ignored. Until this problem is acknowledged then nothing will change (indeed, it'll get worse).

But the WEF etc aren't interested in the actual problem as it won't make any money, so nothing will be done. Instead they're pushing for changes in the wealthy West, because that's the profit opportunity.
