Let's keep plastic out of the Coral Triangle
Plastic is perhaps one of the most useful inventions. We use plastic in almost every aspect of our lives: plastic bottles to hold our drinking water, plastic bags for our food, even plastic particles—called microbeads—in our toothpaste. Yuck, how does plastic enter our food chain? And what can we do about it?
Climate adaptation planning provides an opportunity to enhance the adaptive capacity of stakeholders across multiple levels. However, reviews of standard top-down and bottom-up approaches indicate that the value of multistakeholder involvement is not fully recognized or incorporated into guidelines. Focusing on provinces in Indonesia and Papua New Guinea within the Coral Triangle region, we present a novel integrated top-down and bottom-up planning approach.
