Plastic pollution has been today’s most highly visible environmental problem in the world. How to responsibly manage plastic waste to control and eliminate plastic pollution has been a global challenge. We have begun to address these issues and developed some science-based solutions and emerging technologies. However, tackling such an intractable challenge requires systematic solutions except for science-based and technology-based ones. Environmental education, fostering plastic pollution prevention within society’s educational system, will provide a powerful and feasible pathway at a low cost. Within this perspective, the value and the way forward of education in solving plastic pollution are primarily discussed. Environmental education, including school-level education for students, sustainable consumption behavior guidance, and pollution prevention education for the public, is the feasible, effective, and permanent resolution of plastic pollution in the future. |
