Plastic pollution reduction: Assessment of global best practice

This research project is a collaborative effort between the University of Waterloo and Oceana Canada and is guided by several core objectives:
1) To define, compile, and assess best practices (BPs) that are commonly used for reducing plastic production in selected international jurisdictions;
2) Explore and examine the mechanisms, barriers, policies, policy instruments, etc. that support the implementation of BPs;
3) Evaluate how these BPs can inform federal-level regulatory processes in Canada, while keeping in mind any potential barriers that were identified (e.g., the lack of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives);
