Indonesia is choking on waste. Each minute one tonne of plastic is dumped into its waters, making the country one of the worst plastic-polluters in the world.

It's a problem aggravated by a shoddy waste management system, and pushed to the brink when in 2018, a decision in China sent thousands of tonnes of unwanted plastic recyclables into Indonesia's ports.

But investigations by local activists reveal a dirty secret, pointing the finger at Indonesia's paper factories. What is the connection? And can Indonesia ever escape from becoming a plastic wasteland?
