U.S.A if not the worst contributor to the problem much like with CO2 and waste in general. We as a country well deserve the soon to be all to apparent hatred and distaste for our wasteful ways.
There should of been a forced recycle and deposit on all plastic products from day one.

I was shown once by a chemist that any plastic container uses 1/3 of it's volume in petroleum for manufacture and transport. Not a byproduct of the oil and gas industry but what would otherwise be used for fuel.
