Reply to comment by malenfant21 in [OC] Plastic waste emitted to the ocean per country by sometiara1

There are different scales between the two different coloured circles. They do not appear to be directly comparable in size. Philippines has been rated as highest per capita emitter of mismanaged plastic. Presumably this relates in part to it's geography, lots of rivers, lots of coastline vs land mass.

Yep - I made the 101 error of not checking the scales!
