Recycling mismanaged plastic waste can reduce GHG emissions, says a new report by The Circulate Initiative. “The Climate Benefits of Plastic Waste Management in India and Southeast Asia” report illustrates the potential of investing in effective plastic waste management and recycling across India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines and Vietnam, to reduce greenhousegas (GHG) emissions and combat climate change.
