When thinking about marine plastic litter, which has become one of the most pressing environmental issues, many people may think first about piles of waste in Africa or Asia. However, the pollution can be closer than you think. As the crow flies it is less than 100 km from Trondheim

A new framework to model marine plastic litter impacts in LCIA models

A new framework to model marine plastic litter impacts in LCIA models

Although marine plastic pollution is a well-recognized and highly visible problem, impact models for most of the main impacts from plastic litter are still lacking within Life Cycle Assessment. To coordinate research progress, and to ensure that the impacts are modelled in a harmonized way, Woods [https://www.ntnu.no/
