Plastic Overshoot Day 2024
The 2024 Plastic Overshoot Day marks the point where the world’s production of plastic waste exceeds its capacity to manage it safely, projected to occur on September 5th. This day highlights the growing environmental crisis caused by 220 million tonnes of plastic waste generated globally, with a significant amount becoming mismanaged. Initiatives like the UN Plastic Treaty and recommendations for improved recycling, waste reduction, and stronger policy measures are part of the strategic response to mitigate this issue.
