WHY IS IT IMPORTANT?
The Plastic Disclosure Project, an initiative of
the global not-for-profit NGO Ocean Recovery
Alliance, with the assistance of the United
Nations Environment Programme, has
commissioned the study Valuing Plastic" by
Trucost to drive greater understanding and
management of the risks and opportunities
associated with the use of plastics in the
consumer goods sector.
AIMS OF THE RESEARCH
Identify the main impacts of plastic use within 16 consumer goods sectors.
Map the plastic supply chain upstream and downstream from raw material
extraction, manufacturing and use to the end of its life.
Assess the plastic-related natural capital cost and intensity of the largest
publicly-listed companies per sector, 100 in total.
Estimate the impact of companies plastic use based on disclosure from public
sources and data modelling in the absence of company disclosure.
Highlight the natural capital benefits of more sustainable use of plastic, such as
recycling.
Present three case studies of business excellence in plastic disclosure and
management.
Provide recommendations for companies.

MICROPLASTICS
Lush Cosmetics was PDPs first discloser. Already known for:
All-natural, hand-made products
We prefer naked minimal packaging
Take back program for black pots
Customer awareness campaigns, for shark fin, recycling, marine litter, etc.
Conducting the PDP disclosure helped Lush recognize the full extent and risk
associated with their microplastic use, and took proactive action.

DESIGNING WITH THE END IN MIND
INNOVATIVE DESIGNS
Now, Method also runs beach
clean-up programmes in
Hawaii and makes Ocean
Plastic bottles to raise
awareness for the marine
litter issue.
Methods cleaning products are already known for their green chemistry. In
addition, they have always tried to have high %PCR plastics in their packaging and
continually work to improve recyclability (e.g. plungers).
.as a small soap company, we know we cant clean up the
worlds oceans. But we can raise awareness about the issue and
use our business to demonstrate smart ways of using and reusing
the plastics that are already on the planet. We think the best way to
do that is by proving that solutions exist, even at a small scale.
