In Dutch cities they aren't in denial about global problems they are doing things about the problems. One step is Zero Waste Lab who take you old fabric,paper and plastic to turn into other useful objects and as a reward for your trouble they are giving discount tokens for local shops,win-win. In a bigger way the Dutch are also building Recycled Parks made with plastics retrieved from the North Sea and other areas. The parks are made entirely from plastic then planted with plants and algae on the bottom of the floating areas to make areas for fish to feed and leave their eggs to both develop and be protected from predators. It would be wonderful to see this trend expanded globally and we should all do what we can to make that a reality.
