Abstract
In order to effectively carry out the treatment of marine plastic waste, this paper, on the basis of clarifying the research history and characteristics of marine plastic waste and summarizing the necessity of promulgating special laws on marine plastic waste treatment, analyzes the legal dilemma of marine plastic waste treatment in China, and puts forward corresponding countermeasures and suggestions after drawing lessons from the relevant experiences of the United States, Japan and other countries. The results show that the pollution situation of marine plastic waste is becoming more and more serious, with the characteristics of large quantity, wide sources and great harm. At present, there is a lack of laws specifically aimed at marine plastic waste treatment in China, the main body responsible for relevant systems is unclear, the operability is lacking, and the international governance system is imperfect. Problem-oriented, to provide legal guarantee for the smooth implementation of marine plastic waste treatment actions, special laws on marine plastic waste treatment should be introduced, a regulation committee should be established, an extended producer responsibility system, a polluter responsibility system, a public participation system should be improved, an operator responsibility system should be established, and the breadth and depth of international cooperation should be strengthened, the international rule system should be optimized.
