NO These case studies provide concrete evidence of how communities are affected by marine litter, and presents an opportunity for us to contemplate measures that can be taken to mitigate negative effects. Although there are many documents relating to marine litter produced/published by UNEP and other organizations, this report takes a regional perspective to look at the environmental, social and economic impacts of marine litter.
