Great Pacific Garbage Patch. Science vs. Myth

Did you know!!!

• There is no "garbage patch".While it's true that these areas have a higher concentration of plastic than other parts of the ocean, much of the debris found in these areas are small bits of plastic (micro plastics) that are suspended throughout the water column.
• There are many "garbage patches".Trash congregates to various degrees in numerous parts of the Pacific and the rest of the ocean. These natural gathering points appear where rotating currents, winds, and other ocean features converge to accumulate marine debris, as well as plankton, seaweed, and other sea life.
