Climate, Plastics and Sustainability: Operationalisation and Ontology (ClimOO)

Background

There is now ample evidence that plastics are contributing to climate change in various ways during their lifecycle from production to deterioration into micro- and nanoplastics. It is less clear, however, how to define and operationalise possible causes and effects in these complex environmental interactions, and how, on a local level, farmers in South Tyrol can reduce these detrimental effects of their use of plastics in the production of fruits and other produces.
