• Quantity of plastic entering the ocean is alarming • 275 million mt of plastic waste generated in 2010 • 4.8 – 12.7 million mt entering the ocean • Plastic particles found in over 660 marine species • Majority of plastic entering the oceans originates from 5 rapid growing
economies: China, Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam • Impact on marine ecosystem, livelihoods - the socio-economy, • and the economy itself.

Framework; each EU Member State shall take necessary measures to achieve or maintain good environmental status (GES) in the marine environment by the year 2020 GES defined through eleven descriptors;
• Relating to marine litter: “Properties and quantities of marine litter do not cause harm to the coastal and marine environment.”
Each MS shall develop a marine strategy for its marine waters - in respect of each marine region or sub-region concerned Elaboration of national Programs of
Measures (PoM)

Developed its national Program of Measures (PoM) in time, covering all descriptors, including marine litter Focus on pressure sources at sea Includes, i.a., the reduction of inputs of litter
through a combination of measures relating to • product design, • waste management, • aftercare, • public awareness raising
Process of developing PoM included and involved all kinds of different stakeholders PoM operationalized by the end of 2016
