Read a pictorial on WaPo. Philippines is the source of 30% of oceanic plastic waste. Pictures are mind boggling to comprehend, how a country with under 120 Million people can generate so much plastic waste. Next to internal combustion engines, plastic waste maybe our second biggest global problem since a lot of it winds up in our oceans. Plastics do not biodegrade nor disintegrate and I bet the metalized plastics maybe even a bigger problem. Cannot be incinerated either because they emit toxic gases.
