Abstract. A major global concern is the environmental impact of plastic solid waste contamination in maritime areas. This issue has been extensively studied in countries surrounding the Maritime Zone of the Regional Organization for the Protection of the Marine Environment (ROPME) where there is now wide and rapid population and economic growth, resulting in a considerable deterioration of coastal ecosystems. This document describes generalities of plastic waste in the ROPME area and characteristics of these wastes. The bibliographic review analyses the environmental impacts to the marine environment caused by different types of waste according to their size and how fauna and flora are affected. It also recommends the implementation of regi...
