This book was released on 2022-09 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An estimated 8 million metric tons (MMT) of plastic waste enters the world's ocean each year - the equivalent of dumping a garbage truck of plastic waste into the ocean every minute. Plastic waste is now found in almost every marine habitat, from the ocean surface to deep sea sediments to the ocean's vast mid-water region, as well as the Great Lakes. This report responds to a request in the bipartisan Save Our Seas 2.0 Act for a scientific synthesis of the role of the United States both in contributing to and responding to global ocean plastic waste. The United States is a major producer of plastics and in 2016, generated more plastic waste by weight and per capita than any other nation. Although the U.S. solid waste management system is advanced, it is not sufficient to deter leakage into the environment. Reckoning with the U.S. Role in Global Ocean Plastic Waste calls for a national strategy by the end of 2022 to reduce the nation's contribution to global ocean plastic waste at every step - from production to its entry into the environment - including by substantially reducing U.S. solid waste generation. This report also recommends a nationally-coordinated and expanded monitoring system to track plastic pollution in order to understand the scales and sources of U.S. plastic waste, set reduction and management priorities, and measure progress.

Book excerpt: During the past two years, The Keystone Center has continued to convene the participants in the Keystone Dialogue on Navy Plastics Pollution Control on an as needed basis to implement the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships, known as MARPOL, specifically Annex V which bans the discharge of plastic. The Navy Plastics Dialogue Group is composed of congressional staff, environmental community representatives, and the Navy. Participants have been working with Navy personnel during this time period to implement the recommendations from the report, Reducing Navy Plastic Pollution (1988), produced by the Dialogue Group, which outlined means to comply with the MARPOL Treaty. The discussions at the meetings in the past two years have focused on: the development of new machines which will compact and process plastic and eliminate the need for storage of food waste; substitutions and reduction efforts in the supply centers and on-board ships; and the Report to Congress on U.S. Navy Compliance with the Marine Plastic Pollution Research and Control Act of 1987 (MPPRCA). The Dialogue Group met in November 1991, June 1992, June 1993, and August 1993. MARPOL, Dialogue group, Navy, Plastic Pollution.
