Opinion | To Keep Plastic Out of Oceans, Start With Rivers
Quick Glance: Bali's Fight Against Plastic Waste
  • Bali's convenience stores are filled with plastic products and traditional banana leaves are being replaced by plastic bags.

  • The mixing of plastic waste and organic waste is a problem, as the latter makes up 70 percent of the total waste.

  • A greater plastic circular economy would unlock the value of plastic and protect the environment, but it is still a dream in Bali.

  • Brands that want to integrate recycled plastic into their products cannot do so due to a shortage of quality material in the marketplace.
