Detecting scrap yard in the deepest place in the world

11,000m below sea level, the famous bottom is no longer the mysterious world of deep sea creatures. It has become . the world's deepest landfill.

A diver used a special camera to record a naughty starfish with a large plastic bag at a depth of 10.898m. This is not the only thing that exists in this mysterious world. More than 3,000 other "bottle ticks" were discovered by the expedition team at the bottom of the Mariana basin - the deepest place in the world, in the Pacific Ocean.

Scientists from the Japan Marine and Earth Science and Technology Agency (JAMSTEC) used the "deep-sea debris database" in combination with the actual data they collected for the project. pollution of the marine environment with human waste.

In particular, plastic bags that starfish are mischievous have 30 years of age because plastic or plastic are the most difficult to decompose.

The study surveyed the deep sea area, 1,000km from the mainland. The footage shows many huge man-made landfills among the most desolate and mysterious lands.

The data was collected several decades ago - for example, the plastic bag image was only published after 20 years. Sadly, more and more scientists are finding it difficult to find "scooped" pieces all over the ocean.

In total, there are data of 5010 dive times and 3,425 well-studied human objects. More than 33% of them are plastic, 26% are metal, 1.8% are rubber, 1.7% are fishing tools, 1.4% are glass, 1.3% are fabric - paper - wood and 35% are unclassified.

89% of plastic waste is disposable products. Considering the ocean area 6,000 meters or more, more than half of the garbage is plastic and most are disposable items.

Japan - a country that pays great attention to environmental issues - has called on people to turn away from disposable plastic products - a big reason why mountains of non-biodegradable waste are piling up all day gender.
