But what about the plastic pollution as a result of this (from the GPS tracker that will now become permanent plastic garbage).
You need a little perspective about the true extent of the problem. A GPS tracker probably weights 4 ounces. For comparison, the Yangtze river alone dumps 1.5 million metric tons of plastic per year into the Yellow Sea.
