environmental and human health impacts of intentionally added microplastics in the UK. This
project will then consider the impacts of different potential policy actions, including placing
controls on emissions of intentionally added microplastics, physical and chemical
mechanisms of pollution, quantity and environmental damage estimates of emissions to the
environment from different sectors, estimates of costs to businesses for reformulation to
use alternatives to microplastics, uncertainties around environmental damage estimations
and human health costs.
This project will collect and analyse data on these issues, in order to assess potential policy
responses, in line with the 25-year Environment Plan commitments. The key policy
commitments the evidence project sets out to address are (1) 4.2 Achieving zero avoidable
plastic waste by the end of 2042 (2) 4.7 Managing exposure to chemicals. ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** active - **CPV codes:** 73110000, 73210000, 79311400, 79315000, 90713000 - **Delivery regions:** UK - **Estimated Value:** £200,000 - **Description:** This project aims to improve our understanding of the potential socioeconomic,
