An ecological disaster looms off Sri Lanka as a freighter loaded with plastic pellets burns. The ship was waiting to enter Colombo when fire broke out 10 days ago.
Sri Lanka is a beautiful but poor country which suffered from civil war for years. We had the privilege of touring there years ago during a lull in warfare.
I hope a solution can be found but fear the problem is too advanced.
