01India is the country with the highest amount of plastic waste

According to Agence France Presse, the world's first global report on plastic pollution recently published in the academic journal Nature shows that over two-thirds of global plastic pollution comes from uncollected waste, and nearly 1.2 billion people lack access to garbage collection services. Among them, India is the country with the highest amount of plastic waste.


The research team estimates that,In 2020, there were approximately 52 million tons of plastic waste worldwide, of which 43% was unburned waste and 57% was improperly incinerated waste from households, streets, or landfills. Improper incineration of garbage does not make it "disappear", but only spreads smaller fragments to various corners of the environment, which not only deteriorates air quality but also affects residents' health.
