The only reason Argentina would be turned into a dumping ground for US waste is because other countries have stopped playing this role in recent years.

In 2017, China said it would no longer accept dozens of types of hard-to-recycle plastic and other materials. Countries such as the US, the UK, and Canada have scrambled to find new places to ship their plastic waste.

One by one, the new countries — including Thailand and the Philippines — began to ban imported plastic.

Countries like the US export plastic waste in the first place because they produce far more plastic than they’re able to recycle or sustainably dispose of.

Rather than incinerate plastic or send it to landfills, the US pays other countries to take this trash and bear the environmental consequences of dealing with it.

LISTEN and LEARN,,, it's funny way to say this but so true as you "MIGHT" not been at sea at all and want to lean more abt it,
