• Impacts of Plastic Pollution on Ecosystem Services, Sustainable Development Goals, and Need to Focus on Circular Economy and Policy Interventions (2021, background): “The ban on microbeads has been continued by the other countries also; the Dutch government and trade organization pressured the industries to cease the manufacture of microbeads and issued a statement regarding the ban of microbeads, “Beat the Microbeads, 2016” [275].”
• Theory of planned behaviour: predicting tourists’ pro-environmental intentions after a humpback whale encounter (2019, background): “Difficulties in establishing the impact of campaigns and regulations have been noted by researchers (Xanthos & Walker, 2017).”
• Biodegradation of Wasted Bioplastics in Natural and Industrial Environments: A Review (2020, background): “Furthermore, microplastics, accounting for about 13% of the plastic waste mass [18], and macroplastics may be mistaken for food by living organisms, which would be lethal as they would cause injuries [11,19,20] or lead to detrimental effects on human health as a consequence of being ingested [21].”
• Plastic Waste: Challenges and Opportunities to Mitigate Pollution and Effective Management (2023, background): “Denmark and Germany firstly started to ban plastic bags in 1991 and 1994, and then North America, United Kingdom and Australia followed the footprint to impose a ban and partial ban (Xanthos and Walker 2017).”
• Assessment of microplastics in freshwater systems: A review. (2019, background): “The Marine Waste Project of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) was approved under the Marine Waste Action Act (Xanthos and Walker, 2017).”
