dc.descriptionThe Ministry of Energy, Science, Technology, Environment & Climate Change (MESTECC) is collaborating with UN Environment Programme (UNEP), the Coordinating Body on the Seas of East Asia (COBSEA) in implementing a regional project entitled “Reducing marine litter by addressing the management of the plastic value chain in South-East Asia” –SEA circular Project. This project aims to reduce adverse impact of plastic pollution on the marine environment, by transforming plastic management and preventing waste leakage with focus on the value chain stages of (i) production of plastic products, (ii) plastic use and (iii) collection / sorting / recycling. The Stakeholder consultation was held to discuss and deliberate on the various green initiatives that have taken place thus far in relation to tackling plastic pollution at source in Penang, as well as planning the way forward for 2020 including the know-how in embedding Circular Economy solutions within the island and mainland’s ecosystem.en
