Every year, an additional 8 million tonnes of plastic is deposited into the ocean. In addition to plastic waste, 30 to 40% of carbon emissions from cars, buses, airplanes, and manufacturing plants are absorbed by the ocean, causing chemical imbalance in sea water i.e. Ocean Acidification.

The Environmental Protection Agency’s AgStar program trains farmers to turn animal waste into biofuel using anaerobic digesters, but it is optional — 8,000 farms could implement it, but only about 250 have done so. It can reverse ocean acidification by absorbing carbon dioxide.

We are talking more about planetary boundaries, rather than just our reduction of CO2 and waste," Bleach says. L'Oréal UKI has already sped past the company's target of achieving 60 per cent carbon and waste reductions by 2020 compared to a 2005 baseline, she notes. It's much bigger, in terms of scope.".

Emitting carbon pollution causes local air pollution and health costs plus the economic damages from storms, crop-loss, forest fires, rising sea-levels, ocean acidification, spread of disease and other issues. The broader and more technology agnostic a subsidy is the less likely it is to have large economic waste associated with it.
