Plastic Pollution

A growing plastic smog, now estimated to be over 170 trillion plastic particles afloat in the world’s oceans – urgent solutions required.

Eriksen and colleagues provide an update on their seminal 2014 analysis of plastics floating in the ocean (pone.0111913), using new data from the peer-reviewed literature and 5 Gyres Institute expeditions. They observe a trend of increasing numbers of plastic particles since 2006, to about 82–358 trillion today.
