Progress to reduce plastic pollution has been painfully slow and the consequent damage to the natural environment and to human health is likely to increase further. This has been because the views and ways of working of four distinct stakeholder communities are not sufficiently well integrated. (1) Scientists, (2) industry, (3) society at large and (4) those making policy and legislation must in future find ways to work together.
减少塑料污染的进展一直非常缓慢，由此对自然环境和人类健康造成的损害很可能进一步加剧。这是因为四个不同利益相关者群体的观点和工作方式没有得到充分整合。（1）科学家，（2）工业界，（3）广大社会，以及（4）制定政策和法规的人，今后必须找到共同合作的方法。
