I really liked this one from Reuters https://graphics.reuters.com/ENVIRONMENT-PLASTIC/0100B275155/index.html

It does a great job at presenting how big is our plastic problem, offering a few landmarks as a reference; thus, it's addressing the issue of people having a hard time relating to environmental issues, even if they can expressed quantitatively (as in the case of plastic).

I also enjoy the evolution of the visualization, linking the passage of time to the amount of plastics, and that everything was not piled into one frame for the reader to dig out.

As a negative - but maybe I'm not that pacient with graphics, I found the graph at the bottom a bit too convoluted for my taste; it's a nice visual, but I don't see anything coming out in particular as urgent, which I would have liked in this case.
