The Truth About PlasticWaste
-
300 million tons of plastic is produced every year. Less than 25% of that plastic is reclaimed or recycled and a staggering 8.8 million tons end up in our oceans.
-
700 marine species are threatened with extinction due to the threat that plastics pose to them in the form of entanglement, pollution and ingestion.
-
Most plastics are not biodegradable and only after hundreds of years of exposure to UV rays do they breakdown, and even then, only into microscopic plastic particles.
-
The number of shampoo bottles thrown out in the United States every year could fill 1,164 football fields.
-
Conventional laundry detergents often contain phosphates, which can cause harmful algal blooms that lead to dead zones in aquatic ecosystems.
