Buriganga River Pollution

Woman searches for plastic bottles to recycle from a canal full of waste in Dhaka, on September 20, 2022. Recycling is necessary because almost all plastic is non-biodegradable and thus builds-up in the environment, where it can cause harm. For example, approximately 8 million tons of waste plastic enter the Earth's oceans every year, causing damage to the aquatic ecosystem and forming large ocean garbage patches.
