GES description |
With respect to the amount of marine litter, the target is a downward trend in total and in different types of litter (see above). In order to verify this trend, a methodology is developed.
|
For litter, good status is considered to be achieved by achieving 30 % litter reduction by 2025 compared to baseline. The baseline will be set in the course of 2018. The reduction is calculated separately for each type of waste (artificial polymers, rubber, textile, paperboard, treated wood, metal, glass and ceramics, chemicals, catering waste, other).
|
The target for micro-litter is a downward trend both in total amount and per type of micro-litter (artificial polymers, others). The already developed methods will be implemented in 2018.
