UNESCO invites us not to waste time anymore in the protection of the food chain, that is suffering a non-stop, irreparable damage due to the higher and higher amount of plastic.
A study by Science Advances reveals how the worldwide production of resin and plastic fiber has grown from 2 millions of tons (1950) to 380 millions of tons (2015).
According to the statistics only 20% of the produced plastic has been incinerated or reused. The remaining 80% has turned to stockpile as scrap on the land and into the water.
From 4 to 12 millions of tons of plastic flow into the water all over the world each year, causing the 80% of the marine pollution.
