Повод для оптимизма: рыбы в океане в пять раз больше, чем пластика

[profpr]

There are 165 million tons of plastics in the ocean today, which is 1/5th of the estimated weight of fish. The amount of plastic ending up in the ocean is increasing, so that in the business-as-usual scenario by 2050s the ocean is expected to contain more plastic than fish by weight. Only 14% of plastic packaging is collected for recycling; when additional losses in sorting and reprocessing are factored in, only 5% of material value is retained for a subsequent use.
