Summary
This book volume reviews policies and laws addressing single-use plastics in Brazil, examining how different sectors of society have organized to advocate for regulatory measures. Understanding how policy instruments are developed and implemented is important for the global effort to reduce plastic waste and downstream microplastic contamination.
The observation of several members of society about the environmental and social impacts of plastic pollution reverberates in numerous measures to reduce plastic consumption, in Brazil and around the world. In this context, it is relevant to reflect on how society and inserted groups organize themselves to make decisions about something of public interest. Thus, the second volume presents the policies and laws that deal with the problem of plastic in Brazil, and reflects on the strategies employed to solve the challenges imposed by pollution.
