"Since the mass production of plastic began, almost six billion tonnes
of it - approximately 91% - has remained in our air, land and water.
Plastic production and use is embedded in the global economy, and in our
natural environment. This culture of waste is clearly perilous and
unsustainable.

Our paper, published today in the journal Frontiers in Marine Science,
argues that only a global, market-driven intervention can stop the
plastic tide."
