About the event
The topic of Microplastics continues to be discussed and addressed. Microplastics are fragmented particles of plastics scattered in the environment on land, ocean and air as litter and pollution. As the technology of plastics continues to evolve as a material to support carbon neutrality, there is more importance to ensure the prevention of microplastics. Now, a proposed draft is in preparation by the United Nations for a Treaty on Plastic Pollution by 2024.
Will prevention of Microplastics be through design, infrastructure, change of materials, human behaviours? Let’s listen to the experts speak about their diverse areas in Microplastics.
Join us in this virtual Conference with national and international speakers and enhance your knowledge about the many opportunities for technology to solve.
All plastics professionals should stay informed and up-to-date on this critical subject.
