WWF launches Plastic Smart Cities initiative in Southeast Asia
The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) is calling on cities in Southeast Asia to join Patong (Thailand), Donsol (Philippines) and Phú Quốc Islands (Việt Nam) in making a commitment to eliminate plastic pollution, by developing an action plan and trial innovative solutions.
Plastic Smart Cities is a WWF initiative bringing together cities and tourism destinations to commit to fight plastic pollution. In just the last 12 months, WWF has fundraised US$40 million to work on circular economy projects in cities in Thailand, Việt Nam, Indonesia and the Philippines.
