Out of all the plastics found in the ocean, only a percent of that comes from the water, then what about the rest of the waste, where does that come from? Plastic bottles and cups left on the beach are blown away in the sea due to the strong wind currents. Almost 80% of the plastic found in the ocean is dumped by humans. They come from ships, cargo containers, off shore companies and oil rigs. Even cruise liners dump most of their plastic waste in the ocean instead of recycling it. Industries situated near water bodies dump most of their industrial waste in water in spite of repeated warnings from the government. It's necessary to understand that every plastic product we buy is going to end up in ocean if it's not recycled after usage
