Oceans are important for the human population of nine billion, not only to a wide range of ecosystems and biodiversity's but also to food chains, subsistence and climate control. The birth of the Blue Economy idea and subsequent progress in many forums gives testimony to its significance as an alternative economic model for sustainable development, recognizing our dependence on the seas. It also represents a contemporary view that future development may be achieved while preserving sustainability and social fairness, including the fundamental guiding principles of intergenerational equality. While discussing marine pollution, Marine pollution is defined as introducing people into the marine environment, causing such harmful effects as harm to living stocks, risks to human health, obstruction of marine activity, including fishing, impairment of seawater quality and reduction of facilities. In this study firstly we have given the general overview of the topic then in which we studied blue economy, marine Pollution and its sources, statement of the problem, objectives of the research and then we studied legal approaches to the problem of pollution of marine environment with waste disposal in which we have covered the rising problem of waste disposal in the marine environment, marine ecosystem problems connected with the rise of plastic in the marine environment, global legal solutions to fight marine debris, regional legal solutions to fight marine debris and then we gone towards the international convention for the prevention of pollution in which we have studied regulations for the prevention of pollution by oil, regulations for the control of pollution by noxious liquid substances in bulk, prevention of pollution by harmful substances carried by sea in packaged form, prevention of pollution by sewage from ships, prevention of pollution by garbage from ships, prevention of air pollution from ships. We have also studied about the issue related to marine litter in which we covered marine litter in the east Asian seas, COBSEA strategies and action plans on marine litter, sea circular: solving plastic pollution at source which is concluded that the battle against marine plastic waste was simpler to establish than it was from land-based sources a reasonably effective system to avoid contamination by ships. Onshore monitoring options are greater and waste management on land is technically simpler than on the water.
