Reduction of Plastic Waste
Beaches
In Europe and North America, beaches stay clean because a
significant amount of plastic,
garbage and electronic waste is
shipped to Asia and Africa.
Coastal Areas
Areas lacking sandy beaches and local NGOs are filled with garbage and plastic.
Estuaries
Approximately 20 major rivers, mostly in Asia and Africa, contribute significantly to ocean garbage and plastic pollution.
Depths of the Ocean
Nearly 40% of plastic is deep in the seas, and countless intentionally severed ghost nets, leading to 300,000 annual deaths of dolphins, turtles, and whales due to Ghost nets.
