Marine Litter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Marine litter represents one of the world’s fastest growing threats to marine ecosystems with major environmental, cultural, health and economic impacts and consequences.<\/em><\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

– Marine litter is a crucial topic not only for European policies, but also for the European ecosystem. That’s why we already know that the solution to the problem of sea pollution with waste should not be looked in the sea, but on land – said Tea Kuzmi\u010di\u0107 Rosandi\u0107<\/strong>, project manager in Sunce and organizer of the conference.<\/p>\n\n\n

– With this conference, we want to find solutions to reduce marine litter together. I believe that we will build partnerships and strengthen the capacities of participants to implement sustainable Waste management – concluded Kuzmi\u010di\u0107 Rosandi\u0107<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the second day, September 16th<\/sup>, from 9:30 am to 1:30 pm, the conference is divided into 3 sessions: Public Policies and Waste Management, Circular Economy and Waste Treatment  Technologies and Business Sector and Waste management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
