This project will produce a feasibility study for the implementation of a plastic recycling solution for Diego Garcia. It will assess the costs, logistics, environmental impacts and benefits of a trial for technology that can convert beach waste into a versatile and useful board product locally. An increased frequency of beach cleans will feed plastic into this proposed waste management solution helping to mitigate the effects of plastic on turtle nesting beaches aiding conservation benefits for these enadangered species.
