Global share of mismanaged plastic waste derived from a given country. Mismanaged waste is the sum of littered or inadequately disposed waste. Inadequately
disposed waste is not formally managed and includes disposal in dumps or open, uncontrolled landfills, where it is not fully contained. Mismanaged waste could
eventually enter the ocean via inland waterways, wastewater outflows, and transport by wind or tides.
