In Guatemala, the 426-kilometre-long Rio Motagua is covered in plastic. The river is home to 3% of the world's plastic pollution. Garbage collection is nonexistent in most of the country. Some people sell these discarded items. A local NGO installed a floating barrier in the river's centre in June. This barrier can intercept a portion of the waste before it reaches the ocean. On certain days, it captures over 400 metric tonnes of debris. | NoComment
