Departmental update
Reading time:

Join us for the first in a series of  health and plastics dialogue on 18 September 2023 (13:00-15:00 CEST)

Health risks exist at all stages of plastics lifecycle from production, use, recycling and eventual disposal, as well as from legacy plastics in the environment. Increasing evidence regarding consumption and inhalation of micro – and nano-plastics, concerns about exposures to hazardous chemicals used to give plastics particular properties and the need for better waste management practices are increasingly part of public health discourse.
