In South Korea , nations meet in final round to address global plastic pollution.
It's the fifth time the world's nations convene to craft a legally binding plastic pollution accord.
66 countries plus the European Union say they want to address the total amount of plastic on Earth by controlling design, production, consumption and where plastic ends up.
