FRONTSH1P systemic approach will be enabled by a circular governance model that connects environmental policies with social justice through just transition ensuring environmental sustainability, jobs and social inclusion. The flexibility and modularity of the four CSSs guarantee a high replicability and scalability to other territories across Europe and beyond and this will be demonstrated with the involvement of four additional Regions across EU. This report – Deliverable 2.2 (D2.2) is the result of the work carried out under the Work Package 2 - Regional Systemic Circular Economic Approach, Task 2.2. - Regional Circularity Booster Toolkit. D2.2 meets the FRONTSH1P key enabler and requirement, presents the initial approach of the digital platform creation and methodology for data collection and sharing scheme elaboration. The EU General Data Protection Regulation and open data compliant frameworks have been addressed in D2.2 too.
- Global Ban on Plastic and What Next? Are Consumers Ready to Replace Plastic with the Second-Generation Bioplastic? Results of the Snowball Sample Consumer Research in China, Western and Eastern Europe, North America and BrazilPublication . Kochanska, Ewa; Wozniak, Katarzyna; Nowaczyk, Agnieszka; Piedade, Patrícia J.; Lavorato, Marilena Lino de Almeida; Almeida, Alexandre Marcelo; Morais, Ana Rita C.; Lukasik, Rafal M.ABSTRACT: Plastic can be used for many things and at the same time is the most versatile material in our modern world. However, the uncontrolled and unprecedented use of plastic comes to its end. The global ban on plastic brings significant changes in technology but even more so in civil perception-changes taking place before our eyes. The aim of this study was to find answers to the questions about the readiness of consumers for a global ban on plastic. Within the research, the differences in consumer acceptance in countries in Europe, South and North America and Asia and the expression of social readiness to change attitudes towards plastic food packaging were analyzed. This work sketches the legal framework related to limiting the use of one-use food packaging made of fossil raw materials at the level of the European Union, Poland and Portugal but also at the level of the two largest economies in the world, China and the United States, as well as lower-income countries, e.g., Ukraine and Brazil. The survey results were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. The performed study demonstrates that, in in all the surveyed countries, appropriate legal acts related to the reduction of plastic in everyday life are already in place. Furthermore, this work demonstrates the full understanding of plastic banning in all surveyed countries. Consumers are aware that every effort should be made to prevent the world from drowning in plastic waste. Society is, in general, open to the use of bioplastics produced from the second-generation resource if second-generation bioplastics contribute to environmental and pollution reduction targets.
