People be real.
Its a handful of "Asian" countries that are responsible for 80% of the global pollution.
Toilets like Bangladesh (shudder), Indonesia (boke), and China being the worst. I believe China is actually attempting things to help, but as for the other countries, they just treat all their waterways as sewers and rubbish dumps, and it spews it all into the sea.
Truly about as stupid as you can get really.
A country like Germany which is mainly landlocked, will be responsible for almost ZERO sea destined plastics, (although still some of course).
If we nuked China, imagine how many species would recover and how much less plastic there would be.
This, at this time I'm afraid is not an option, so the next best thing is to stop IGNORANTLY buying Chinese made TAT like some pathetic commercially programmed robot. I refuse to use things made in China, and it results in me returning a HELL of a lot of stuff, or, just not ordering it at all when I see that this was the country of manufacture.
In SOME ways China really does show us the future. They are planting vast forests to prevent desertification from the Gobi, and the limiting of children is something that MUST, and WILL happen at some point in the future, whether the liberal bleaters like it or not!
