Penolakan Amerika Serikat Terhadap Resolusi PBB UNEP/EA.3/RES.7 Tentang Pencemaran Laut dan Mikroplastik
Summary
This study analyzed why the United States opposed a UN Environment Programme resolution on marine litter and microplastics, examining the political and economic factors behind the rejection. The resistance of major powers to international plastic governance frameworks slows global action on ocean plastic pollution.
Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengkaji faktor-faktor yang melatarbelakangi Penolakan Amerika Serikat terhadap Resolusi UNEP/EA.3/RES.7 Sampah Laut dan Mikroplastik. Pencemaran sampah plastik menjadi topik yang menarik untuk dibahas saat ini karena merupakan masalah besar bagi lingkungan dunia. Sebagai negara penghasil sampah plastik terbesar di dunia pada 2016, Amerika Serikat yang seharusnya mendukung resolusi tersebut malah menolaknya. Data yang diambil berupa data sekunder dan metode analisis data kualitatif yang digunakan. Hasil kajian yang dilakukan oleh Amerika Serikat menunjukkan beberapa faktor yang mendiskualifikasi yaitu Amerika Serikat telah memiliki peraturan nasional untuk pengelolaan sampah termasuk sampah plastik, dan juga memiliki industri plastik dalam negeri yang dilindungi karena jika penyelesaiannya diadopsi maka Amerika Serikat Negara-negara harus mengurangi produksi plastiknya dan Sebagai pengekspor limbah plastik AS terbesar di China pada tahun 2017, menerapkan kebijakan untuk tidak lagi menerima berbagai jenis limbah, sehingga menyulitkan AS untuk mengolah limbahnya.

Responsibility and Allocation for Environmental Damage Caused by Marine Plastic
Despite its title referencing marine plastic pollution and environmental damage, this paper is primarily a legal analysis of international treaty negotiations over plastic pollution responsibility — not a scientific study of microplastic pollution itself. It examines how national interests and industrial lobbying have stalled the International Plastics Convention and discusses frameworks for allocating environmental liability, and is not directly relevant to microplastic science or human health impacts.
Penanggulangan Pencemaran Sampah Plastik Di Laut Berdasarkan Hukum Internasional

Politics and the plastic crisis: A review throughout the plastic life cycle
This political science review analyzed over 180 studies on the governance of plastics across their full life cycle, finding that marine pollution and microplastics are driving the fastest growth in plastic policy research. The authors identify fragmented governance architectures and the absence of binding international agreements as major obstacles to addressing the global plastic crisis.
Advancing the international regulation of plastic pollution beyond the United Nations Environment Assembly resolution on marine litter and microplastics
This legal paper reviews international frameworks relevant to plastic pollution and argues for a binding global agreement specifically targeting plastic pollution, beyond existing resolutions. A comprehensive international treaty is increasingly seen as necessary to meaningfully reduce plastic pollution, including microplastics.
