Narrative Bust: Here’s Where 90% Of The World’s Plastic Pollution Comes From (Hint: It’s Not Your Straw)

(Tea Party 247) – The climate alarmists on the left would have you believe that you, a westerner, are solely responsible for the plight of the planet and, to save our planet, you must give up all your plastic straws, red meat, and check your privilege while you’re at it, for good measure.

Now, while it is not anywhere near as well-established as these people would have you believe that humans are to blame for “climate change” in the first place, let’s just say, for the sake of this article, that they’re right.

That all the plastic and carbon emissions and cow farts are to blame for the fact that Miami may not exist in a few years, in the words of a certain bartender-turned-congresswoman.

Dr Christian Schmidt, a hydrogeologist from the Helmholtz-Centre for Environmental Research in Germany, and colleagues analyzed existing research involving 79 sampling sites along 57 rivers around the world to come up with the top 10 polluting rivers. The researchers' calculations indicated that the amount of plastic in rivers was related to the mismanagement of plastic waste in their watersheds.

The 10 Most Polluting Rivers

Yangtze - East China Sea, Asia
Indus - Arabian Sea, Asia
Yellow - Yellow Sea, Asia
Hai He - Yellow Sea, Asia
Nile - Mediterranean Sea, Africa
Ganges - Bay of Bengal, Asia
Pearl - South China Sea, Asia
Amur - Sea of Okhotsk, Asia
Niger - Gulf of Guinea, Africa
Mekong - South China Sea, Asia

You are forgetting that we in thee west are magically responsible for this pollution. If we ban plastic straws, that will causes ALL of this pollution to go away....
