A framework for selecting and designing policies to reduce marine plastic pollution in developing countries

The polluting of marine ecosystems with plastics is both a global and a local problem with potentially severe consequences for wildlife, economic activity, and human health. It is a problem that originates in countries inability to adequately manage the growing flow of waste. We use an impact pathwa...
