Resumo(s): | This chapter delves into various challenges linked to the paramount problem of plastic waste, which totals a staggering 400 million tons annually, with a shocking 11 million tons ending up in our oceans. It examines data related to plastic production and waste. The excessive hopes pinned on the plastic-digesting enzyme's potential are discussed. In the European context, directives, recycling targets, and the worrying prospect of smuggling plastic waste are addressed. Emphasis is placed on the importance of incorporating recycled plastics into concrete solutions that could potentially help recycle almost 25 million tons of plastic waste per year. Additionally, we offer a glimpse into the book’s organization and structure. |
