You've been asked to propose a solution for dealing with a challenging environmental issue! But where to start?

In order to come up with a thorough approach, you're going to need to:

1) sort out the issues, and then research to figure out the nuances of those problems;

2) identify the stakeholders & power players, and then figure out what those stakeholders need or want to happen;

3) look for real life examples from which to draw inspiration for possible solutions.
