Did you know we now have an 8th continent! It is made entirely of plastic garbage and its larger than the US State of Texas!

  • Anyone notice there is not a SINGLE photo of this supposed patch the size of Texas. They show shore photos, one of a canoe paddling through trash in Asia and lots of animals. But there is not one single photo of a mass of garbage, other than one small patch of fishing nets about 12ft by 4ft on the ocean surface. I know there is rubbish out there but to believe these turkeys with no evidence has caught a huge group of gullible people.

    There is NO huge Pacific Garbage Patch!

    It's a big con.

  • The great Pacific Garbage Patch is not a solid mat of garbage. It is mostly microscopic pieces of plastic.

  • Well done and simple! I look forward to sharing this. Spreading the word helps make a difference.

  • Are there any organizations helping to clean this up? I mean, that's a lot of plastic but not impossible to clean up. IT can all be recycled one by one. This is sickening.
