Have you heard of the "Great Pacific garbage patch"? I didn't either until last week when I was browsing for facts about recycling plastics. By the way, according to the United States Environmental Protection Agency, only 9.8% of all plastic bags, snacks and wraps were recycled in 2008, which is only 390,000 of the 3,570,000 tons produced in the year 🙁 That's sad!
The rest will evidently join the other garbage in the Great Pacific garbage patch! This is actually two large masses of accumulating trash
