The report also found 15 other corporations in the energy, agrochemical and meat and dairy sectors who also contribute significantly to ocean pollution.
In order to determine the corporations contributing the most to ocean plastic pollution, 24/7 Wall St. reviewed a 2018 study from the Greenpeace and the Break Free From Plastics movement that examined plastic waste in 42 countries.
