The CPD’s Green Cities Initiative was set up to better understand the drivers of air and plastic pollution in Bangladesh’s cities and develop workable policy solutions. Since its establishment, the Green Cities Initiative has brought together scientific evidence and economic analyses, producing a series of reports, evidence papers, briefing notes, policy briefs, and events that have improved understanding of the problem among policymakers, journalists and members of the academic community.
In this policy toolkit, CPD’s Green Cities Initiative has attempted to analyse public attitudes and behaviours associated with air and plastic pollution, complementing the existing work focused on structural and systemic factors.
