Target description
Reduction of the number of newly introduced and deposited litter items from various, terrestrial and marine sources, into the marine environment, to levels guaranteeing the proper functioning of the ecosystem, taking into account its natural resilience or the elimination of newly introduced litter.

Reduction of the number of newly introduced and deposited litter items from various, terrestrial and marine sources, into the marine environment, to levels guaranteeing the proper functioning of the ecosystem, taking into account its natural resilience or the elimination of newly introduced litter.
Achieving declining trends in the number of solid litter items, excluding micro-litter, classified as one from the category: artificial polymer materials, rubber, cloth/textiles, paper/cardboard, processed/worked wood, metal, glass/ceramics, chemicals, food waste or unidentified litter deposited on the shoreline, floating on the surface and deposited on the seabed with particular emphasis on litter characterized by exceptional harmfulness or a very long degradation period by taking appropriate measures including relevant legislation, waste disposal, but also through proper education and public awareness.

Achieving declining trends in the number of micro-litter defined as particles less than 5 mm in size, classified in two categories: artificial polymer materials and other, occurring on the shoreline, in surface water and in marine sediments by taking appropriate measures including appropriate legislation on the use of microparticles in industry and disposal at the stage of wastewater treatment, removal of macrolitter from the marine environment that are the source of secondary microparticles, but also through activities including proper education and raising public awareness.

Achieving trends of decreasing number of litter and micro-litter classified in two categories: artificial polymeric materials and others ingested by marine species belonging to the groups: birds, mammals, reptiles, fish or invertebrates and occurring in a given region by achieving the environmental targets indicated for criteria D10C1 and D10C2.
Limiting to a minimum the number of individuals belonging to selected species of birds, mammals, reptiles, fish or invertebrates that have been adversely affected, in the form of health changes or death, resulting from the presence of litter, including micro-litter in the marine environment (e.g. as a result of ingestion or entanglement) by achieving the objectives indicated for criteria D10C1 and D10C2.
