From the 1950s to 2015, the production of plastic products grew from virtually zero to about 350 million tons per year. This continuous increase has resulted in a cumulative total of 7.8 billion tons of plastic produced during this period, corresponding to more than one ton of plastic for each person alive as of the end of 2015.

Up until the 1980s, the idea of recycling plastic was unheard of. From the 1950s to the 1980s, plastics were either simply discarded into landfills or incinerated. From the onset of plastic recycling in the 1980s to the present, the portion of plastic products that were recycled increased by an average of 0.7 persen per year.

As of the end of 2015, a staggering 55% of all plastic products end up in landills. This corresponds to about 4600 million tons of accumulated plastic waste over the years. About 700 million tons of plastic waste has been incinerated and about 2500 million tons remain in active use.

Of the entire volume of plastics that have been produced since the 1950s, only 500 million tons (roughly 6%) have been recycled. Of this portion, only 100 million tons remain in active use. The other 400 million tons have also ended up either getting discarded in landfills or incinerated. Around 3% of plastic waste produced annually ends up in oceans – or about 8 million tons by the end of 2015.

By use, packaging of goods constitutes the greatest volume of usage of plastic products at around 141 million tons. The next category has a volume of less than half – the building and construction industry at only 65 million tons. This emphasizes how heavy plastic production can be reduced by using non-plastic alternatives for product packaging. Looking at the plastic production rates per country, China leads the pack by a huge margin at around 60 million tons. The US comes in at second at 38 million tons.
