The Great Pacific Garbage Patch

The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is located in the North Pacific Gyre off the coast of California and is the largest ocean garbage site in the world.

​

This floating mass of plastic is twice the size of Texas, with plastic pieces out numbering sea life six to one.

​

Plastic constitutes approximately 90% of all trash floating on the ocean's surface, with 46,000 pieces of plastic per square mile. - 2017

Shows the top and the the bottom of the pacific garbage patch, actually looks like a massive iceburg in the ocean. Horrible like a huge city on the surface and below the surface of the ocean.

How it works? A picture showing the Garbage patch is coming from Sea sources - Oil platforms, Ships, Fishing equipment and Land sources - bottles, carry bags, tires & tubes. This is what the Garbage patch is made up off.
