Plastic waste has a significant environmental impact when mismanaged. The study quantifies the of plastic management systems using consequential life cycle assessments in selected countries Asia, including India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam. scope covers from generation to end-of-life treatments, avoided not producing raw materials due utilization. Eleven impacts were considered, global warming potential (GWP100) carcinogenic human toxicity (HTPc). India lowest net GWP100 (-0.648 kg CO2-eq) per while Indonesia highest (1.128 CO2-eq). Future scenario analyses showed that increasing recycling can reduce by up 611 % 2030. Policymakers investors use these results focus their efforts on methods which environment health.
