3.5 million tons of JUNK. Plastic soup. An area twice the size of Texas a thousand miles off of North America?? I have to read more about this.
I heard about this a few years ago and like many busy overconsuming Americans I read about it, switched to glass containers, then forgot about it the next time a case of bottled water went on sale at Stop&Shop.
OMGoodness. I stink! I'm getting more stainless bottles from LLBean.
I have Nalgene bottles but now they are supposedly dangerous to drink from.
This Oceanic floating mess is killing us slowly.
Tiny bits of semi degraded plastic chips not quite settling, not quite floating in the ocean.
Plastic sand the man on tv is calling it.
We have really screwed up this planet.
Jellyfish, fish, birds, turtles all geting caught up in plastic twine and shopping bags.
If they don't die from being suffocated they are dying from ingesting the plastic chips/slush. If they don't die...hmmm..they are food for the next on the food chain...then up and up and up until some couple splits grilled Sea Bass in Cape Cod.
Their children have nosocomial symptoms but are basically healthy, or ARE they?
Their children, grandchildren....hmm...I wonder.
At least I'll be dead in 30, 40 or 50 years.
