From Land to Sea: Model for the Documentation of Land-Sourced Plastic Litter
Summary
A systematic model was developed to document and quantify land-sourced plastic litter pathways from point of disposal to ocean entry, providing a structured framework for tracking how improperly discarded plastic on land ultimately contributes to marine microplastic pollution. Better documentation of land-to-sea transport routes is essential for targeting waste management interventions at the highest-impact points in the plastic pollution pipeline.
The model “From Land to Sea – Model for the documentation of land-sourced plastic litter” was developed on behalf of BKV GmbH, Frankfurt, Germany. This model systematically records for the first time discharges of improperly disposed-of plastic...
