I need to find numbers and stats on of illegal dumping/ trash/ pollution. I’m making a short film for my high school. I would like to know things about how much trash pollution is collected. Deaths to wildlife because of pollution and other facts. California stats would be great but ANY general stats would help me so much! Thank you.

Specifically water and air pollution, such as pollution in the Ganges River. Also pollution in the air in China. When did the number of deaths per year (400,000) in China get that high? How many thousands die each year in India due to pollution?
