在首届联合国环境大会6月23日于内罗毕开幕当天发布的两份报告指出，海洋里大量的塑料垃圾日益威胁到海洋生物的生存，保守估计每年给海洋生态系统造成的经济损失高达130亿美元。
由环境署支持，塑料披露项目（the PlasticDisclosure Project）和“真实成本”（Trucost）公司联合发布的《评估塑料的价值》报告发现，消费品行业的塑料使用每年消耗的自然资本达750亿美元。 原材料的提取和处理导致的温室气体排放消耗了超过30%的自然资本，但海洋污染是最大的下游成本。
In the first two reports of the United Nations Conference on the Environment on June 23 in Nairobi, information was released that pointed out that a large amount of plastic waste in the ocean is a growing threat to marine life, a conservative estimate of the annual economic losses caused to marine ecosystems was up to $ 13 billion.
