local.seafdecaqd.extract | The Philippines is the third largest manufacturer of plastic wastes out of 126 countries in the world, just behind China and Indonesia, studies showed. In a data released by Greenpeace, an international organization prioritizing global environmental campaigns, the Philippines alone contributes an alarming rate of 1.77 million tons of mismanaged plastic wastes each year. A total of 54,260 pieces of plastic waste including single used plastics such as bottle labels, bags, straws, and sachets were retrieved last year in a weeklong beach clean up at the Freedom Island in Manila Bay spearheaded by the same organization. | en |
