The European Commission plans a common strategy for plastics in its Action Plan for the Circular Economy. This strategy for plastics is going to address marine litter as one priority issue, with three-quarters of all marine litter being plastic materials. To prevent marine litter as well as to enhance plastics waste management in a circular economy, the plastics strategy needs to put forward a fine-adjusted common policy-mixture. The policy mixture needs to include concrete and binding instruments to efficiently strengthen recycling and recyclate use in Europe.
