  1. Is it because they shipped all their plastic waste to Indonesia and Thailand to be dumped on the coasts there?

  2. This is incredibly promising news, but there could also be a few other things at play here, such as trade winds and ocean circulation patterns making a temporary lull in coastal deposits. We see it here seasonally on our shore lines, especially with micro plastics. Still promising news though! 👏💯
