Abstract:
With an annual global production of more than 350 million tons, a highly developed maritime traffic, and a large coastal population, the Mediterranean is among the most affected area in the world by plastic pollution. The conference will present an overview of the plastic pollution in the oceans and describe the situation in our waters, including inputs, fate, degradation, transport at sea and impacts. The aspects concerning management measures as well as global and European policies will be discussed.
