Cars, whole houses and even severed feet in shoes: The vast field of debris from Japan earthquake and tsunami that's floating towards U.S. West Coast
'If you put a major city through a trash grinder and sprinkle it on the water, that's what you're dealing with,' Some of the debris to hit the West Coast may be radioactive following the devastation at Japanese nuclear power plants..

A vast field of debris, swept out to sea following the Japan earthquake and tsunami, is floating towards the U.S. West Coast, it has emerged.
More than 200,000 buildings were washed out by the enormous waves that followed the 9.0 quake on March 11.
Scientists say the first bits of debris from Japan are due to reach the West Coast in a year's time after being carried by currents toward Washington, Oregon and California.
They will then turn toward Hawaii and back again toward Asia, circulating in what is known as the North Pacific Gyre,

  • I respect this guy.

  • Mother Nature is trying to say softly - Love thy neighbor

  • 70 million sharks killed annually for their fins?  Something about that doesn't quite add up.

  • I understand what this guy is saying and he is right!  However, what he's talking about has nothing to do with the title of the video. The debris from Japans earth quake is coming to the west coast and out country is doing nothing about it.

    The guy who made the video needs to rename it to "Save the Planet".

    Obama doesn't care about anybody in this country! Is he even from this country??!! NO! He cares about himself and his lies.

  • i'll bet all kinds of diseases or potentual diseases are in this hunk of junk

    get your Td shot up to date !

  • FUCK THE ONE THAT UPLOADED THE VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!

  • the earth is beautiful

  • No, he's right, about the beauty of snokeling with the fish, on a coral reef. For the idiots who call it "psychobabble", I can only assume they have never SEEN God's beauty, under the seas. I have. And to destroy that, IS A CRIME. However, I must agree that he shouldn't have tried to "trick" anyone, using Japan. No "tricks" are needed. All you need do is go to Hawaii, like I did, or Carribean, and swim.

  • nice asshole...use a tragedy to spew ur opinions...way to get ur point herd...u had me till the first fishy lol

  • @GTox444 He was using Japan to bring people in to listen to his psychobabble bullshit.
