Putting plastic waste management technologies into practice
Summary
Researchers argued that achieving sustainable plastic waste management requires a systems-level approach that integrates mechanical, chemical, and biological recycling technologies rather than treating individual methods in isolation, emphasizing that no single technology can address the full complexity of the global plastic waste problem.
The generation of plastic waste is a growing problem, and its impact on human and environmental health is yet to be fully uncovered. This Editorial discusses the need for a systems-level approach to achieve truly sustainable plastic waste management solutions.
