1.1 Production and end-of-life of plastic materials
Plastics make up a significant proportion of the materials used today, with production rising from 2 million tonnes in the early 1950s to 370 million tonnes in 2019. . While plastics can offer benefits such as reducing the weight of many objects, the increase in their production is having a growing impact on the environment since the plastics sector is responsible for 4.5% (2015 data) of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions
