Approximately 8 million metric tons of plastic enter the ocean each year.
Approximately 8 million metric tons of plastic waste enter the ocean each year.
The largest ocean is the Pacific ocean. It flows between Asia and the Americas. The volume of the Atlantic ocean, the second largest ocean, is about half the volume of the pacific ocean. The Indian ocean is the largest ocean. The Arctic ocean is the smallest ocean. This ocean is unique because much of it's surface is covered by ice. The Southern ocean extends from the coast of Antarctica to 60 degrees south latitude
The average rainfall in the Pacific Ocean is 50 inches of precipitation.
It is estimated that over 4.5 trillion cigarette butts and 1.5 trillion plastic bottles are littered globally every year. Additionally, an estimated 8 million tons of plastic waste enter the oceans annually.
Because it has a greater surface than land, and therefore absorbs more solar energy. Also because the ocean is generally colder than land (ocean has less thermal energy than land) , and higher energy goes to lower energy.
Approximately 8 million metric tons of plastic waste enter the ocean each year.
It is not known how much of the plastic in the world ends up in the ocean. The oceans are becoming more polluted with various types of debris and trash.
Too much we need to stop this immediatly!
The values are different for each type of plastic.
Because people are just so lazy to pick up there trash.
about 3.69 for a big thing of knifes and forks that are plastic
none because water goes into it
400 gallons comes out and on 40 gallons gets into the female the only 360 gallons goes in the ocean so who knows how much is really in the ocean.
4.8 billion tons
Clay goes for 177Gp each Soft-Clay goes for 244GP each
Well the ocean is a great thing about the earth. it is a very abundant element. so theres so much that it never goes away.... well it actually never goes away.
Nothing much. The ocean floor spreading is in the Atlantic ocean caused by the mid oceanic ridge which is the largest and longest mountain range in the world. It is huge and if you google ocean floor maps you will see a thing that goes all over the oceans floors. The volcanos erupt as the plates shift away from each other.
