! You were wrong
just like 86% of peopleAlmost all plastic stays on land
Many wrongly think that most plastic waste ends up in oceans. As long as waste management is bad in middle-income countries, some plastic will enter the oceans (especially if rich countries keep selling their waste there), but nowhere near as much as people currently believe.
The question
What share of all plastic waste in the world ends up in the oceans?
Answer options
A: Less than 1%
B: Around 36%
C: More than 66%
