Plastics Supplemental Scripts

Supporting scripts and graphics for documentation of the Global Plastics AI Policy Tool.

Purpose

A collection of small scripts used to support the preparation of derivative datasets and secondary graphs which complement the Global Plastics AI Policy Tool. See also the main tool repository that these scripts support.

Usage

Simply install python dependencies (pip install -r requirements.txt) and execute the small pipeline (bash run_pipeline.sh). Note that this does not run the optional OpenRefine script to generate supplemental dataset 1 under the refine subdirectory.

Local development environment

No additional steps beyond install of python dependencies (pip install -r requirements.txt) are required though users may consider building a virtual environment.

Testing

As these are just small supporting scripts, there are not explicit style guidelines or separate automated tests which are enforced in the upstream repository.

Deployment

Simply merging to main will cause the scripts to execute and their results packaged. Note that these are not permanent resources so there is no "deployment" location and, instead, are simply made available for the convienence of users as further supplementary material.
