the Ebb and Flow of Plastic.
The world’s largest polluter is (unsurprisingly) China. The plastic waste from China is far higher than that of the United States in second place. China’s rate is 60 million tonnes per year, while America’s tally is 38 million tonnes.
China has no environmental or animal welfare protections and so it will continue to pollute unless the rest of the world puts economic pressure on it to stop. The much-needed global will to ‘stand up’ to China is unlikely to emerge short of political revolution (something I believe will take place in the next two decades).
