翻译后摘要：塑料污染是我们这个时代增长最快的环境挑战之一。自20世纪60年代以来，在地球仪周围提出了关于塑料废物产生（塑料污染）的各种关注。世界各地的城市每天都会产生大量的塑料垃圾。自20世纪50年代以来，近一半的塑料最终被填埋或倾倒在野外，这是处理塑料的最常见方式之一，只有9%的塑料被充分回收。据估计，大约有400万至1200万公吨的塑料废物最终进入海洋。这表明，这是所有人类在寻找塑料处理可行方案方面的集体失败。
Abstract: Plastic pollution is one of the fastest growing environmental challenges of our time. Since the 1960’s, various concerns were raised regarding plastic waste generation (Plastic pollution) around the globe. Everyday tons of plastic waste is generated in various cities across the world. Since the 1950’s close to half of the plastic is ended up in landfills or dumped in the wild which is one of the most common ways of disposing plastics, and only 9% of plastic has been adequately recycled. It is also estimated that around 4 to12 million metric tons of plastic waste ends up in the oceans. This points out that this is a collective failure of all human kind to find a feasible solution for the plastic disposal.
