The Great Pacific Garbage Patch, a collection of floating trash and plastic, covers more than 600,000 square miles and is located between Hawaii and California. I read recently that scientists identified 484 invertebrate organisms living in the patch. Who knew that this is now a cute little ecosystem. So, even though there is an estimated 1.8 trillion pieces of plastic weighing about 80,000 tons, it seems that everthing is now A- OK. So sleep easy tonight. My Vegan Art Book is for sale on Amazon.
