During IMO MEPC 77, a resolution on the strategy to address marine plastic litter from ships was adopted, confirming the commitment in reducing plastic litter entering the marine environment from all ships. The aim is to strengthen the international framework and compliance with the relevant IMO instruments, targeting to achieve zero plastic waste discharges to sea from ships by 2025.
