From Source to Sea: Assessing Macro- and Micro-Plastic Impacts in Life Cycle Assessments

This upcoming webinar will examine how recent advances in life cycle assessment are closing long-standing gaps in the quantification of macroplastic and microplastic impacts. We will explore emerging methodologies such as the Plastic Footprint Network and MarILCA, discuss how mismanaged waste and plastic leakage can now be integrated into LCAs, and highlight why these developments matter for packaging sustainability and evolving regulations, such as Oregon’s EPR program, which incorporates mismanaged waste metrics into its LCA requirements.
