Autor Tin Sin Lee, Soo Tueen Bee
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 4 iun 2024
Microplastics Pollution and Worldwide Policies on Plastic Use discusses microplastic pollution and global policies developed to tackle the problem. It details the mechanisms of microplastics occurrence, sources, and impacts. It then offers a comprehensive overview of the various policies created by specific countries in Asia, Europe, the Americas, and Africa to address plastics use and minimize its effects.
  • Describes microplastics pollution found worldwide in drinking water and food chains.
  • Addresses policies implemented in Asia, Europe, the Americas, and Africa and details local policies for various countries within each region, including requirements and penalties for non-compliance.
  • Explains the mission and vision of global organizations such as the United Nations, G7, World Economic Forum, World Bank, and Lisbon Treaty.
This book is aimed at academics, industrial professionals, policy makers, and general readers interested in the mitigation of microplastic pollution.
