Apr 29 2021 Read 13 Times Persistent organic pollutants, or POPs for short, are a collection of chemical pollutants that have been proven to traverse huge distances (often crossing international boundaries) and persist in the environment for extended periods of time. As they accumulate in the food chain and the environment in general, they can pose a threat to human, animal and plant life on the planet. For that reason, there are strict regulations in place which dictate the concentrations of certain POPs in all waste generated by individual citizens, private businesses and public organisations. Although as much waste will be recycled or repurposed as possible, the EU recognises that some must go to landfill or be otherwise disposed of. If the concentrations of POPs in this type of waste exceed the legal limits, extra precautions must be taken to ensure they cannot permeate the surrounding ecosystems.
