The world is producing a record amount of single-use plastic waste, mostly made from polymers created from fossil fuels, despite global efforts to reduce plastic pollution and carbon emissions, according to a new report.

The second Plastic Waste Makers Index, compiled by the philanthropic Minderoo Foundation, found the world generated 139 million metric tons of single-use plastic waste in 2021, which was 6 million metric tons more than in 2019, when the first index was released. The report found the additional plastic waste created in those two years equates to nearly one 1 kilogram more for every person on the planet and was driven by demand for flexible packaging like films and sachets.

The list is led by US oil major Exxon\n \n Mobil, China’s Sinopec\n \n and another US heavyweight, Dow, in that order, according to the report. And in making polymers bound for single-use plastic, those 20 companies generated around 450 million metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions — around the same amount of total emissions as the United Kingdom, according to Carbon Trust and Wood Mackenzie, which analyzed the data.
