    “According to research conducted by the World Shipping Council, on average 1,390 shipping containers are lost at sea each year, whilst in 2019 there were approximately 16,000 lost cargo containers. While estimates have varied in recent years due to different reporting measures across different countries, this statistic has even exceeded 10,000 containers falling to the bottom of the ocean every year.”

    Except that they don’t ‘fall to the bottom’. Many of them float just beneath the surface, causing a hazard to boats that come upon them unwittingly.
