Philippines: The boy diving for plastic - BBC News
Thirteen-year-old Ranniel quit school to support his family. He now risks his life, diving into polluted waters to retrieve plastic waste, the result of a pay-as-you-go, single-use plastic culture that is devastating the environment. It's estimated that Filipinos dispose of 163 million single-use sachets of household products a day, according to one study. That’s enough to cover the entire area of Metropolitan Manila, one-foot-deep in plastic waste. Video by Howard Johnson and Virma Simonette. Please subscribe HERE http://bit.ly/1rbfUog
