Ce texte est extrait de la récente édition de « La revue de l’Institut Veolia – Facts Reports » consacrée aux plastiques. André Abreu, directeur des politiques internationales pour la Fondation Tara Expéditions, est co-auteur de cet article. 5 250 milliards, c’est le nombre de particules plastiques qui flottent à la surface des mers et des océans du monde, soit l’équivalent de 268 940 tonnes de déchets.
