FSLCI & RICV launch report on Marine Litter and LCA
The FSLCI and RICV have launched a new report titled “Connecting Expert Communities to Address Marine Litter in Life Cycle Assessment”. The report was launched at the recent Life Cycle Innovation Conference in Berlin.
The report provides an overview of discussions following the Medellin Declaration on Marine Litter in Life Cycle Assessment and Management, which highlighted that currently LCA, as one of the most widely used assessment tools is not currently addressing the impacts on the environment of marine litter such as plastics. The discussion included more than 30 experts with various backgrounds to start addressing the issue of marine litter within LCA.
