Where did researchers find it more effective to place plastic collection devices? In the middle of the ocean In the Arctic Ocean Near coral reefs Closer to shore

Researchers have found it more effective to place plastic collection devices closer to shore. This is because plastic waste tends to accumulate in the ocean and eventually wash up on the shore. By placing collection devices closer to the shore, it is easier to collect the waste before it has a chance to spread further into the ocean. Additionally, placing collection devices closer to the shore makes it more convenient for people to access and maintain them.
