Greenpeace Taiwan plastic-free project director Chang Kai-ting said the organization investigated more than 30,000 pieces of trash from the Tamsui and Zengwen rivers in Taiwan, South Korea\u2019s Han River and Hong Kong\u2019s Lam Tsuen and Pui O rivers.<\/p>\n<p>About 28,000 pieces, or 90 percent, were plastic trash, Chang said. While the trash was manually collected and counted in Taiwan and Hong Kong, drone images and artificial intelligence were used in South Korea, she said. The results showed that most of the river trash in the three locations was single-use items such as plastic bottles and food containers, Chang said.<\/p>\n<p>Food containers accounted for the most river-borne waste in Hong Kong at 25.85 percent, followed by daily necessities and their packaging at 16.71 percent and beverage containers at 15.8 percent, she said. Most river trash in South Korea was plastic packaging at 82.1 percent, while the second-most was plastic bottles at 15.3 percent, she said. Most of the identifiable plastic bottles in Taiwanese rivers were from well-known brands, including Uni-President, Vitalon Foods Co and Swire Coca-Cola, Chang said.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.taipeitimes.com\/News\/taiwan\/archives\/2024\/11\/08\/2003826577\">Taipei Times<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/3-621\/\">Ninety percent of river trash is plastic, Greenpeace study shows<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[575,694,4256,5111],"class_list":["post-135222","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-plastic","tag-river","tag-trash"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135222","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=135222"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135222\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=135222"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=135222"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=135222"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
