Critics Review

‘Environmental Damage Caused by Marine Litter: International Regulation and Responsibility will become an important resource for researchers, academics and students of environmental, maritime, ocean and international law, especially with the recent establishment of a legally binding international agreement to deal with plastic pollution. Policymakers, legal practitioners, NGOs and governing bodies will also benefit from the book’s practical recommendations.’ – Tony R. Walker, Ocean Yearbook

It not only highlights the challenges but also proposes innovative legal solutions to mitigate the environmental impact of marine litter pollution.’ – Sandra Cassotta, Aalborg University and IPCC Lead Author, Denmark
