India generates more than 10 million tons of plastic waste each year. A new paper by Kearney and the Confederation of Indian Industry maps out a comprehensive initiative to address this challenging landscape.
Each step of the plastics value chain requires close examination to identify issues and drive potential solutions:
- Upstream activities (plastic production, conversion and consumer use)
- Midstream activities (collection and sorting of plastics waste)
- Downstream activities (recycling of sorted waste and use of recyclates)
- Government regulations
