Plastics will be the first international journal focussing on the nexus between plastics, health and environment. It will offer researchers, analysts and policy-makers a unique insight into the interplay between plastics, people and nature by providing a platform for the publication and discussion of high-quality research. The journal will publish review and research papers on topics that directly explore the urgent and major societal challenges posed by the interactions between plastics, health and environment, and examine possible solutions.
Plastics will open to unsolicited submissions in Summer 2023.
