Microplastics所収
Synthetic fibers are widely used in daily life due to their durability, elasticity, low cost, and ease of use. The textile industry is the primary source of synthetic microfibers, as these materials are mostly used in production processes. Globally, plastic pollution has been identified as a major environmental threat in this era, since plastics...
Book of Abstracts - SLAcJ 8th International Conference on Harnessing Technology and Governance for Natural Capital Management
Environmental Education (EE) is crucial for raising awareness about environmental protection and improving the quality of life for present and future generations (Ilovan et al., 2019; Premakumara et al., 2016). This is particularly important in addressing global issues like plastic pollution. As of 2015, approximately 6300 metric tons of plastic...
1st International Conference on Plastics & Environmental Sustainability
Synthetic fibres, owing to their durability, elasticity, non-wrinkle nature, and cost-effectiveness, have become ubiquitous globally. However, the widespread use of synthetic fibres has raised concerns about microfiber pollution, particularly in laundry wastewater. While source reduction could be considered the main management method to prevent...
Roundtable Meeting with Higher Level Functionaries for Strengthening the Climate Security Outcomes of Adaptation Planning
Climate security refers to the direct and indirect impacts of climate change on peace and security. It also refers to the impact of climate change on the political stability, human security, national security, etc. Climate change as a threat multiplier, can exacerbate the underlying traditional security issues and human security issues.

The global hospitality industry is at a pivotal juncture, confronting a pervasive challenge — the menace of plastic pollution and marine litter. The Global Tourism Plastics Initiative (GTPI) notes that approximately 80 percent of all tourism activities occur in coastal areas, positioning the hotel industry as a significant contributor to the...
This document presents the methodology and findings for a national plastic waste inventory for Sri Lanka. It has been prepared as part of the project titled “Marine litter and micro-plastics: Promoting the environmentally sound management of plastic wastes and achieving the prevention and minimization of the generation of plastic wastes,”...
Sri Lanka faces substantial challenges in managing its Municipal Solid Waste (MSW), attributed to factors like population growth, urbanization, changing consumption patterns, and fast growth of industrial and service sectors. Alarmingly, only 37% of city and district centers in the country benefit from official MSW collection services. The use of...
Reducing the use and promoting the environmentally sound management of single-use plastics in the tourism sector offers a great opportunity to tackle plastic pollution at the source. Similarly, addressing problematic plastics throughout tourism value chains can also drive a shift towards innovative and circular business models. In this context...
Plastic pollution represents one of the most pressing environmental issues facing the planet today. This is largely due to the increasing mass production of single-use plastics (SUPs) including packaging materials and other items that are quickly outpacing the world’s ability to respond. Social, cultural and economic shift in addition to the...
