FSLCI Workshop on Marine Litter and LCA highlights urgency to act!
FSLCI convened more than 30 key experts from the life cycle and marine litter community together with RICV from 22. – 23. May at the European Commission in Brussels to discuss, how to address marine litter within LCA. The workshop was organized as a follow-up action to the Medellin Declaration on Marine Litter in Life Cycle Assessment and Management, jointly launched last year by FSLCI and RICV, which highlighted that LCA, as one of the most widely used sustainability assessment tools for greening the economy, is currently not adequately addressing the impacts on the environment generated due to marine debris, such as plastics and microplastics.
