The cover of this issue of Emerging Topics in Life Sciences features a myriad of plastic products and everyday waste items are scattered through a dense mangrove network in Northern Bali. This littered landscape was captured as part of the PISCES (Prevent Plastic Pollution in Indonesian Societies) project, highlighting a far too common site across Indonesia. Field teams are working towards identifying the most prevalent items of waste found in Indonesia to inform design and policy-driven interventions to reduce anthropogenic impact. Credit: Dr. Max Kelly
