What is Ocean Plastic Pollution Estimates about?

The document models the accumulation of plastic in the oceans from 2010 to 2300 based on estimated inputs and degradation rates. It shows that the amount of plastic in oceans is expected to continue increasing over time, reaching over 350 million tons by 2300, as inputs outpace degradation. The degradation rate of 0.0277% per year means it will take plastic around 50 years to break down half its mass in oceans.
