Physical and chemical characterization of recycled glass sand for environmental restoration
Abstract Introduction We rely on coastal resources for food, water, and energy. However, over 75% of U.S. coastlines are eroding. Concurrently, the U.S. recycles less glass than other developed countries, landfilling hundreds of millions of tons every year.

As coastal regions experience accelerating land loss, artificial substrates may be useful in restoration efforts to replenish sediment and facilitate plant colonization. Recycled glass sand is a potential artificial substrate for marsh building due to its sustainability, availability, and similarity to natural substrates.

Field‐based evaluation of glass cullet as a supplementary sediment source for coastal restoration
There is an ever‐increasing demand for sand to support projects like beach nourishment and dune restoration, but dredging and mining sand causes environmental damage. Demonstrating the environmental and ecological compatibility of crushed and ground glass known as cullet to support coastal restoration projects could simultaneously divert waste from ...

Opportunities for targeted, small‐scale law reform in marine and coastal restoration
Across the globe, law reform is being considered as a mechanism to support, guide, and encourage the upscaling of ecological restoration. While high‐profile examples like the European Nature Restoration Law show the value of large‐scale law reform, this scale of law reform will not be feasible or politically tractable everywhere.
