There are likely hundreds of trillions of pieces of plastic floating around the world’s oceans – and one country has been named the worst polluter.

Millions of tons of plastic end up in Earth’s water bodies every year, and less than 10 percent of the world’s annual plastic production is recycled, according to the World Health Organization.

While China and the US are the world’s largest plastic producers, as well as the countries with the largest emissions of planet-warming greenhouse gases, a new list has named the Philippines as the country that produces the most plastic pollution found in ocean waters.

The Southeast Asian country produces 7.27 pounds (3.30 kilograms) of mismanaged plastic waste per person each year, according to a new report from business energy consulting group Utility Bidder. The group used the research and data-sharing publication Our World in Data.

The US produces fewer than 0.02 pounds (0.01 kilograms) per person.

South America’s Suriname ranked second, producing 6.37 pounds (2.89 kilograms) per person. Other island nations around the world rank within the top five, including Trinidad and Tobago and Saint Lucia, which came in third and fourth, respectively. Malaysia rounded out the top five, with about 5 pounds (2.29 kilograms) per person each year…
