if that question is serious...
then the better question would be:
how much does a good lawyer cost?
(ps: i REALLY hope you are a troll)
at least 12 miles
Throwing garbage into the ocean is illegal and harmful to marine life and ecosystems. There are no designated miles of shore where this is permissible. Instead, proper waste disposal methods should be followed to protect the environment. It's essential to adhere to local laws and regulations regarding waste management.
yes
through fish and human waste
With new technology no. There is a whole process where machines sepearte water from human waste. The water is what goes into the ocean. The waste is either diposed off by destroying it, or dried and mixed in with other things to become a natural fertilizer
probably in the ocean
industrial waste, plastic, chemicals, soaps and detergents, human excreta, radioactive waste.
Into the ocean, on the side of the road, (burying it) in the ground... It's a horror. Not one major river or ocean on the planet remains untainted by human waste and/or pollution.
Ok, so when you go to the bathroom onboard a ship the waste usually goes to a holding tank and is usually emptied at each port. However before 2010 after 3 nautical miles away from shore the ship could dump treated waste and after 15 nautical miles away from shore you could dump untreated waste. This law was changed in 2010 and now they must hold it in a holding tank. I hope that helped :)
Since it is over 4,000 miles long there can be no doubt that it is.
Untreated human waste may be dumped overboard in certain areas of the ocean, particularly in international waters, where there are fewer regulations compared to closer coastal regions. However, many countries have laws prohibiting the discharge of untreated sewage within specific distances from shore to protect marine environments. Additionally, vessels are often required to treat waste before disposal, especially in designated sensitive areas. The regulations can vary widely depending on local, national, and international maritime laws.
In the United States, vessels are generally required to be at least 3 nautical miles (approximately 3.5 miles) from shore to legally dispose of certain types of garbage at sea. However, different regulations apply depending on the type of waste and the specific location, such as whether the area is within a designated marine protected zone. It's important for boaters to familiarize themselves with both federal and state regulations regarding waste disposal. Always check local laws before dumping any waste to ensure compliance.
