Description
"Preventing Plastic Pollution" guidance packs provide detailed insights into the outcomes and findings derived from three years of dedicated efforts. These packs encapsulate various initiatives, including the establishment of a standardized methodology for measuring micro and macro plastic pollution, experimentation with interventions for waste removal, and collaboration with local communities to proactively inhibit plastic entry into water bodies. These comprehensive guidance packs are designed to aid professionals and members of ocean communities in their endeavors to combat plastic pollution along the entire continuum from source to sea.
