The Foreign Pollution Reduction Act establishes a comprehensive framework to combat ocean pollution by providing financial support and resources to nations such as Indonesia and Haiti, incentivizing them to significantly reduce the volume of waste entering marine environments.
This Act allocates funding for innovative waste management solutions and offers training programs for local governments to adopt best practices in waste reduction and recycling.
Additionally, it mandates annual audits to ensure compliance with established guidelines, publishing the results in an international ranking system that highlights each country’s progress and improvement. By fostering collaboration and accountability, this initiative aims to create a global movement towards cleaner oceans and healthier ecosystems.
