Nordic programme on sustainable plastic

Nordic Council of Ministers eBooks 2017

Summary

This document outlines the Nordic programme to reduce the environmental impact of plastics across the Nordic countries, coordinating knowledge development, policy measures, and awareness raising to prevent plastic waste, increase reuse and recycling, and minimize marine plastic pollution. The programme represents a regional strategic commitment to accelerating the transition to a circular economy for plastics.

The Nordic programme to reduce the environmental impact of plastic is a strategic tool designed to enhance knowledge, draw up measures, and to enhance synergies, networks and awareness at Nordic level. The Programme will support the Nordic countries in their efforts to prevent plastic waste, increase the reuse and recycling of plastics, accelerate the circular economy and minimize marine plastic litter and microplastics. The Programme was originally planned to cover years 2017–18 but has been extended to the end of 2020. It will be implemented within the framework of the Nordic Council of Ministers.
