Addressing one of the most pressing environmental issues, this topical book carefully inspects the current extent of the plastic pollution crisis and observes contemporary approaches to its regulation. By adopting a strong interdisciplinary approach, the book fully encapsulates the key challenges and solutions surrounding this globally-applicable problem.

Through critical analysis, this insightful book methodically identifies the faults in existing efforts to tackle the problem of plastic pollution such as often-fragmented regulation tactics, proposing potential approaches to policy reform. It utilises stakeholder analysis to offer a study of key participants such as governments and industries and comprehensively surveys the ongoing nature of this provocative issue.

This comprehensive book will be crucial for students and scholars of law, economics, politics and environmental studies endeavouring to further understand the multi-dimensional issue of global plastic pollution. It will additionally be valuable for policy and decision makers seeking to understand the challenges involved in environmental policy regulation.
