Plastic Bags are Leaving a SCAR on today's world

In 2019, the European Union adopted the Single-Use Plastics Directive, which aims to reduce the use and consumption of single-use plastics, including microplastics. Several countries, including China, Kenya, and Rwanda, have implemented bans on plastic bags to reduce plastic waste, including microplastics. Several countries, including France and Canada, have introduced regulations to limit the use of microplastics in various products, such as cosmetics, cleaning products, and food packaging. The effectiveness of these policies and areas for improvement[edit source] Policies and regulations aimed at reducing microplastic pollution must be properly enforced to be effective. Policies aimed at reducing single-use plastics, including microplastics, can be effective in reducing plastic pollution. Policies aimed at reducing microplastic pollution must be supported by research and monitoring to track progress and identify areas for improvement Catnoirabdullah (talk) 16:46, 28 February 2023 (UTC)[reply] Note for editors, publication that could be relevant to this wiki page: Policy Paper (September 2023), Standards and Related Initiatives in International Cooperation to End Plastic Pollution: Mapping and State of Play From the TESS Forum: Forum on Trade, Environment & the SDGs — Preceding unsigned comment added by Resganhou (talk • contribs) 13:14, 29 September 2023 (UTC)[reply] [subscribe] English[edit source] Solution to plastic pollution 49.204.106.51 (talk) 13:55, 2 November 2023 (UTC)[reply] It's not clear what changes you want to be made.

Laws related to recyclability, waste management, domestic materials recovery facilities, product composition, biodegradability and prevention of import/export of specific wastes may support prevention of plastic pollution.

Standardization of products, especially of packaging[193][194][additional citation(s) needed] which are, as of 2022, often composed of different materials (each and across products) that are hard or currently impossible to either separate or recycle together in general or in an automated way[195][196] could support recyclability and recycling.

In the EU design-for-recycling standards are currently being drafted to ensure that plastic products, components and packaging are more easily recyclable. [O’Halloran, A.

In 2022, the European Commission submitted a standardisation request to CEN and CENELEC calling for the development of harmonised standards in relation to product design, the quality of sorted plastic waste, and the quality of plastic recyclates.
