  • We're not talking about a huge chunk here, we're talking about tiny bits that float around far under the surface.

    Go on a trip out there, dive under the water and open your mouth for half a minute. You'll have several tiny bits of plastic in your mouth.

    The issue is the fact that small animals like fish and birds try to eat the plastic. And also that it'll eventually reach us.

    Sure, you can call it a hoax. But there's more than enough proof of it. And where else does the plastic go?

  • We deserve to be killed off.

  • If you're interested in recycling art and trash watch "Safe the planet-Recycling art" ,"Your trash haunts you" and "Miss Biarritz" you will enjoy it !!! 

  • I'm kind of happy the ocean draws all the waste to one point. People so worried about eating plastic. How much food is stored in plastic, cooked with plastic, ate with plastic? If your worried about plastic, I'd say the fish eat better.

  • @NBSX

    Firing it into space is only dumb because its not cost effective. If it was cheap it would be great. You can't "pollute" space with earth shit, even if our entire planet was made of garbage and spread about only the solar system it would be insignificant, that's how small earth is.

  • So tell us. What is the fraction of garbage to ocean are we dealing with?

  • @sparklydiamondring We made of our world a garbage world and now go out to space and do the same?

  • Would be nice to find a video about this subject without running into that little foul mouth.

  • and... thank you for terrifying us
