Forging Multidisciplinary Alliances in the Plasticocene

Scientists, ecologists, artists, environmental NGOs, international negotiators, and human rights advocates shared their knowledge, experience, and strategies to develop multidisciplinary approaches for raising awareness about and addressing the problem of plastic pollution.
