Abstract: Plastic pollution is one of the fastest growing environmental challenges of our time. Since the 1960’s, various concerns were raised regarding plastic waste generation (Plastic pollution) around the globe. Everyday tons of plastic waste is generated in various cities across the world. Since the 1950’s close to half of the plastic is ended up in landfills or dumped in the wild which is one of the most common ways of disposing plastics, and only 9% of plastic has been adequately recycled. It is also estimated that around 4 to12 million metric tons of plastic waste ends up in the oceans

Abstract.
 One of the most pressing environmental issues facing the world right now is plastic waste. Once in the environment, plastics continuously degrade into microplastics, which are fragments of plastic. There are more national and international promises to reduce microplastic pollution as the world's plastic production rises. National governments are increasingly banning single-use plastic products or imposing taxes on them. Consider the UN Sustainable Development Goals, the UN Environment Assembly Resolutions on Marine Litter and Microplastics, and Addressing Single-Use Plastic Pro

Abstract:
Plastic pollution is a significant issue globally. Plastic pollution in the environment and its entry into the food chain are detrimental to humans, animals, and plants. There are many drawbacks to using traditional approaches to tackle plastic pollution. A proposed solution to this problem is the biodegradation of plastics by microbial enzymes. Enzymes produced by bacteria and fungi have a propensity to completely break down polymers. This review included level and causes of plastic pollution and the conventional ways for reducing plastic pollution, the biodegradation of plastics using plasti

Plastic pollution is ubiquitous and there is growing concern about its consequences. Given that current research findings often reach the public insufficiently, the issue should be addressed at school. To create a fruitful learning experience, we propose three associated hands-on, inquiry-based learning activities that require little equipment. Students learn about the origins and properties of plastics, investigate everyday sources, learn about recycling, address and reflect upon the material’s (dis)advantages, and are encouraged to consider solutions. All activities align with the Next Gener

Plastic pollution is generated by the unsustainable use and disposal of plastic products in modern society, threatening economies, ecosystems, and human health. Current clean-up strategies have attempted to mitigate the negative effects of plastic pollution but are unable to compete with increasing quantities of plastic entering the environment. Thus, reducing inputs of plastic to the environment must be prioritized through a global multidisciplinary approach.

Plastic pollution is one of the most importation subjects of water contaminations in the world. Plastic pollutions not only threats locally, but also, they are widespread, posing broader risks to the world and environment. Plastics which act as pollutants are categorized by size into micro-, meso-, or macro debris. The micro plastics move through oceans from one region to another region. Today, there are several evidence of micro plastics in south pole where we believe it as a clean area. This paper surveys the effects of micro plastics on the Great Lakes.

It is widely claimed that at least 80% of the plastic litter entering marine environments comes from land-based sources, yet there is little empirical evidence to support this. Most studies to date predict the flux of litter from land to sea using global models based on a handful of field studies conducted mostly in developed, Northern Hemisphere countries; others use proxies such as per capita waste generation and proportion of mismanaged waste to predict litter loads entering the sea. It thus remains unclear how accurate these predictions are, particularly for African countries where few fie

Abstract:
Recent literature on the role of plastics in achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) was analyzed. Despite contributing to the accomplishment of at least 15 SDGs, plastic pollution, especially marine pollution, outweighs the positive contribu tions of plastic to accomplishing the 2030 Agenda. The study, however, emphasized the vital importance of the circular economy, highlighting practices such as recycling as viable solutions to the socio-environmental problems that may be created by plastics.

Abstract:
Plastic pollution has become one of the major concerns in the world. Plastic waste is not biodegradable, which makes it difficult to manage waste plastic pollution. Recycling and reusing waste plastic is an effective way to manage plastic pollution. Because of the huge quantity of waste plastic released into the world, industries requiring a large amount of material, like the pavement industry, can reuse some of this mammoth volume of waste plastics. Similarly, the use of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) has also become common practice to ensure sustainability. The use of recycled waste plasti

Abstract:
Last Fall, the Federal Court declared invalid and unlawful the federal government Order that classified plastic articles as toxic under the Environmental Protection Act. The government quickly appealed the decision and the Federal Court of Appeal granted a stay motion which prevents the Federal court ruling from taking effect while the appeal is ongoing. Therefore, the Single-use Plastics Prohibition Regulations remain in force. Despite an acknowledgement that Canada must fight against plastic pollution, Canadian exports of plastic waste amounted to almost 175 thousand tonnes in 2022, hardly a

Abstract:
The Philippines faces a severe plastic pollution problem, generating over 36% of ocean-bound waste. Key legislative measures like RA 9003 and local SUP bans have been implemented, yet challenges remain. Emerging trends include waste-to-energy (WTE) technologies, microplastic studies, and community-led cash-for-trash programs. By addressing illegal waste imports and fostering multistakeholder partnerships, the country can strengthen its efforts toward sustainable waste management and reducing environmental harm.

Abstract:
This paper focuses not only on the special needs of small states and small island developing states (SIDS) in the challenge to reduce plastics pollution, production and trade, but also on the opportunities. It draws on new information made available in an UNCTAD prototype database that tracks trade in plastics across the entire life cycle and identifies phases in the plastics industry that could offer export opportunities to small states and SIDS. However, this kind of structural transformation will not happen by itself. Part of the solution will depend upon having coherent trade policies, ind
