India is 12th in the list of top 20 countries notorious for disbursing the maximum amount of plastic waste into the high seas from their respective coastlines.

Considering that India is largely poor, has a LOT of coastline, and has about a billion people, that is actually pretty impressive.

IIRC, there was a article a while back stating that the vast majority of plastic trash going into the oceans originates from several rivers in Asia and Africa.
