HEADING FOR A GREENER WORLD


Marine Litter

The United Nations Environment Programme(UNEP) estimates that:
• 5.25 trillion pieces of plastic debris currently pollute our oceans
• Cumulative weight reaches 269 million metric tons
(Equivalent to 1,345 Eiffel Towers)

 

 

About 8 million tons of plastic waste enter the ocean every year.
