The Plastic Problem
Around the world, 13 million
tonnes of plastic enters the ocean each year. That’s
the same as a dumper truck of rubbish every
minute of every day!
In
2010, waste plastic
which ended up in the world's oceans was like having ";ive
plastic grocery bags ;illed with
plastic for every foot of coastline in the
world".
Unfortunately, the sea is where so
much of the plastic people throw away ends up.
