“Take care of it for free” == put it in a hole in their ground because for the developed world, its “outta site, outta mind”. Pretty stunning ethical blind spot we all have, really. At best, it’s a case of wishful thinking, on behalf of developed-world consumers, that once it’s in the bin something responsible is being done with it.

Until they realize that handling plastic garbage becomes a noticeable health problem and health insurances are no longer willing to pay for this externality.

I don't think that happens anymore?
