Bringing science closer to the public is a tool to make the presence of plastic in iver ecosystems visble. Citizen science activities of Plastic0Pyr Switch<\/a> help to generate positive habits towards the management of plastics in mountains ecosystems.<\/p>\n

The Plastic0Pyr Project<\/a> has its framework in the Euroregion of the Catalan, Andorran and Occitan Pyrenees, its aim is to sustainably prevent the accumulation of plastics in mountain ecosystems and prevent their transport to the sea.<\/p>\n
