Measures the proportion of plastic waste generated by the fishery that is recycled, recovered, or reused instead of being disposed of. This indicator reflects how effectively the fishery manages plastic waste.

Resource lineage
- Statement
- Step 1: Identify data sources that report on the life cycle of macroplastics in the fishery, i.e. how macroplastics are dealt with when they reach the end of their usability in their original form (disposal, recycling, recovering, repurposing, reuse). If no data are available, report "Data not found" and the year of data collection for the framework. Step 2: Report the percentage of total macroplastic waste that is recycled/recovered for re-purposing/re-used for the most recent available year and the data’s year of provenance and/or publication where available.
