According to the World Economic Forum, at least 8 million tonnes of plastics leak into the ocean every year. This is considered the equivalent of dumping a garbage truck into the ocean every minute.<\/p>\n<p>Makassar is thought to be especially vulnerable to plastic pollution as it is located in Sulawesi, an island province that is difficult to access logistically. A new collection centre is hoped to make way for efficient waste management infrastructure and tackle the rise in waste polluting the region. Furthermore, it is anticipated to provide opportunities for reliable income in dignified working conditions, opening up 50 jobs for local people. It is also set to distribute certified, traceable, \u2018premium quality\u2019 recycled plastic to global markets.<\/p>\n<p>Prevented Ocean Plastic claims that each of its new centres adheres to the Prevented Ocean Plastic Standards. These were created in line with the Ethical Trading Initiative (ETI) base code and follow ISEAL\u2019s Code of Good Practice, alongside Bantam Materials UK\u2019s Good Manufacturing Practices and traceability process. \u201cIndonesia is a country of 17,000 islands and no drinkable water from the tap,\u201d explains Prevented Ocean Plastic director Raffi Schieir. \u201cAlong with other factors, this contributes to the country being ranked the number two source for ocean plastic pollution.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/packagingeurope.com\/news\/indonesian-collection-centre-to-process-500-tonnes-of-plastic-waste-monthly\/11480.article\">Packaging Europe<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/3-537\/\">Indonesian collection centre to process 500 tonnes of plastic waste monthly<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[575,3997,14903,761],"class_list":["post-131455","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-indonesia","tag-makassar","tag-plastic-waste"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/131455","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=131455"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/131455\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=131455"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=131455"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=131455"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
