The Great Garbage Patch

What happens when trash does get to the ocean.  This Vice documentary from HBO is all about the great slough of trash that has accumulated in the North Pacific Gyre.  Instead of a big floating island of trash, it is more like a soup of small plastic debris that is impossible to clean up.

One warning about the three-part video:  foul language is laced throughout.  However, the topic is so important and there really isn't any other source yet about this topic, so it is worth the curse words to learn about the disaster.
