Executive Summary In this document, we present the value of using a model-based mass-balance approach for tracking the fate of plastic packaging waste across different countries, packaging types, and polymers. This is the approach EA uses to produce the ‘Plasteax’
A strategic roadmap to align corporate disclosures, investor practices, and global policies for mitigating plastic pollution and advancing a circular economy.
This report delves into the strategic use of Outcomes-Based Waste Prevention (OBWP), a novel financial approach that rewards tangible decreases in plastic waste, to address the funding shortfall that hampers efforts to tackle plastic pollution effectively.
The Plastic Footprint Network (PFN) has worked to establish the methodology for conducting plastic footprint assessments, akin to the framework global organisations currently employ to assess and reduce their carbon footprint.
The bicycle model illustrates a collaborative and science-driven solution to combat the pressing issue of plastic pollution.
This report addresses the introduction of a plastics protocol to improve corporate accountability under the International Legally Binding Instrument on plastic pollution, emphasizing the need for standardized reporting and action planning in the plastic value chain.
Guide to assist packaging design teams and sustainability teams in applying the SPHERE framework.
This series of videos was created to help understand the methodology behind PLASTEAX and the types of data it provides.
Ecodoc, born from the collaboration of Unisanté and EA, is a carbon footprint simulator for medical practices (in Switzerland)
The SPHERE framework aims to support decision-makers in breaking out of this tunnel vision to look at the environmental impacts of packaging from a holistic perspective.
These guidelines represent the initial comprehensive framework that incorporates the best practices for standardized accounting and reporting of plastic footprints.
The guidance offers a structured approach to identify plastic leakage hotspots, assess their impacts throughout the plastic value chain, and prioritize appropriate actions.
The Plastic Leak Guidance is the first science-based methodology to map, measure and forecast plastic leakage along the value chain.
