On 5 December 2013, the Conference of Parties of the Barcelona Convention for the Protection of the Mediterranean adopted a regional plan to manage marine litter. The regional plan is a local effort to reduce to a minimum the presence and impacts of marine litter pollution. It aims to prevent litter from entering the marine environment, remove existing litter where possible, using environmentally respectful methods, and to increase knowledge about the problem. |
