It's estimated that over one million plastic bottles are purchased every minute worldwide, many of which end up in landfills and oceans, contributing significantly to pollution. While exact numbers can vary, it's believed that around 8 million metric tons of plastic waste enter the oceans annually, with plastic bottles being a major component. This pollution harms marine life, ecosystems, and human health. Efforts to reduce plastic waste and improve recycling are crucial to addressing this environmental issue.
