"Climate change. Nature and biodiversity loss. Pollution. Plastics are wrapped up in all of them. The conclusion is obvious. Marine litter is best addressed by rethinking how we design, use and dispose of plastics. We need to revisit and inform the entire supply chain. And if we do this, we can make our economies, societies and planet greener and healthier."Inger Andersen, Under-Secretary-General of the United Nations and Executive Director of the UN Environment Programme, September 2021
