Reply to comment by tlst9999 in Plastic pollution in oceans has reached 'unprecedented' levels in 15 years by ethereal3xp

That’s not a correct deduction you made. The numbers are correct.

The reason is: 1: The Philippines import waste from other countries to recycle it, but they don’t recycle it. 2: The Philippines don’t recycle as much as china. 3: The Philippines more actively use the ocean as a dumping ground for waste.

Other countries know that, and they still send it to Philippines anyway. They don't want recycling. They want a fall guy.
