...How plastics move around the world
Most of the plastic trash in the oceans, Earth’s last sink, flows from land. Trash is also carried to sea by major rivers, which act as conveyor belts, picking up more and more trash as they move downstream. Once at sea, much of the plastic trash remains in coastal waters. But once caught up in ocean currents, it can be transported around the world.
On Henderson Island, an uninhabited atoll in the Pitcairn Group isolated halfway between Chile and New Zealand, scientists found plastic items from Russia, the United States, Europe, South America, Japan, and China. They were carried to the South Pacific by the South Pacific gyre, a circular ocean current.
Microplastics
Once at sea, sunlight, wind, and wave action break down plastic waste into small particles, often less than one-fifth of an inch across. These so-called microplastics are spread throughout the water column and have been found in every corner of the globe, from Mount Everest, the highest peak, to the Mariana Trench, the deepest trough.
Microplastics are breaking down further into smaller and smaller pieces. Plastic microfibers, meanwhile, have been found in municipal drinking water systems and drifting through the air...

Blaming the entire western civilization for the Pacific garbage patch gyre is fake news.
It is well documented 95 % of all of the mass of the great garbage patch in the pacific comes from China and other SE Asian nations.
Blaming AU OZ and the USA is the height of ignorance where this pollution is coming from and it is not the heart of America that now drinks from tree depleting wooden straws.
Hell the SE Asians use the pacific ocean as a dumping pit and has for decades.
Now you want to put onus on civilized societies? At least we take care of our trash. The SJW worrying about a plastic straw even on the west coast of the USA making it into the gigantic garbage gyre is kind of funny that SE Asia pumps billions of tons of garbage daily into the ocean.
Its like SJW's flying on privet jets yelling at the world to clean up its act when even one celebrity specialist in climate science puts out more CO2 n a week than entire stone age country will in a year.
These wealthy false prophets to not want to limit the poor in the darkest jungles and deserts and limit their growth rates
Instead the middle Americans should pay the 15 Trillion dollar price tag.
Abort their own and let the 3rd world run willy nilily to any first world country at their pleasure.
It would be funny if it was not so insane.
Throwing rocks in glass houses is what billionaire SJW newfound MMGW are running on now. It is not getting warmer except for under the collars of the true believers that live in the new wave secular religion that is MMGW.
We have been exposed to doomsday for the last 40 years. If we go another 40 years and if we are even colder now that we were today would the feinds back off. I didn't think so either. Everyone in the know knows the BS meter is going off the chart now and most reasonably educated science leaning intleatuals like myslelf will not longer by into the secular Eschatology to the degree they the white race is willing to commit genocidal dna suiside but also encourage another DNA people to replace them thinking them to be the better alternative.
The PC warriors have gone off the cliff.
I see white snowflake running over white female children in the car because we was conserned about global warming.
I mean the left is giving the POTUS Trump an easy win.
How did we become so stupid and compliant so quickly?
In future generations in history, this period of global non borders and the rats race to hell will be hopefully written in stone because the PC warriors are willing to grind the memory of the founding fathers into pure dust.
You can google that one.
We are at a precipice that is 20 years before Canada but it will itself reach it in enough time.
The question is, in 50 years times I could give a rats ass if the temp went up or down one degree either way.
The fact is is that you are not needed anymore.
You are only waisting space and expelling too much CO2 and not paying the billionares enough for your byproduct of breathing that plants seem to like but others in power seem to not like you breathing as much as you do.
I have already been dealing with this fake news for the last 30 years.
The best we can get is fudged numbers of fudged data that we may have gotten a bit warmer like 0.9 C in the last 3 decades and I myself do not trust where the data is coming form.
IMO we will only get colder for the next 40 years due to the solar minimum
How will the warmingers deal with that reality?
I would assume the same procedure they are doing now, which is transferring sub Saharan Africans and pure Islamism anti EU folks to the EU to make up for the 1.23 reproductive level that is so way below the 2.23 replacement level it would even make China the one Child policy county to blush.
The EU has a reproductive problem on the level of Japan or even worse if you could even imagine that, I mean even worse than Japan. There must be a lot of nothing going on sexually there. I mean who in this day and age can even tell who a woman or a man is? We get yelled at that men can bleed and have children too in their male uteruses?
Men's rooms have tampons now. I though the USA had conflictions of nature about what a XY vs an XX chromosome was all about. The EU wimps took it to the extreme to self castration of themselves they need Africans and middle easterners to push that sperm into unwilling EU females like it nor not. It not a crime to rape a white over and over until you impregnate the woman if you are illegal according the Brussels and Germany and mother Merkel. EU males esp Berlin Males will never step up to protect their own women.
Instead you have inane posts like Berlin has a lot art and Instagram posts. I mean WTF your losing your county and you are now a personal employee of the depressed and under the thumb Berliners thinking everything is hunky dory. They lostness of it all confounds me. But I just hope that particular former is just young and unwise and never saw the Berlin wall go down himself for I figure that creepy character " Ich bin ein Berliner " was still is the balls of his almost ball less father at the time when I was already in medical school.
Perhaps most of the most masculine males died in the WWI and WWII wars and all they were left with was pacifists and transgenders.
But mother Merkel must have a way for females to reproduce.
Islam took a toll on the Spanish empire. Mother Merkel who is children less realizes that white EU females need to be inseminated by any means necessary.
If that the means to the end is slave rape and multiple wives and combines all the better because germany is in a collapsing reproductive state that will cost more lives not being born than the combination of WWI and WWII.
Its not like German wymen are not attractive enough. Its the castorated fem men that cannont reproduce ala Japan for the last few decades.
Don't worry SJW's the white race in the EU sans the eastern bloc will be minority white in about 20 years.
Than let us look at Germanys GDP output per capita by than,
In that time half of the population will be on the doles. While hopefully the UK can escape from this monstrosity of a human experiment gone widely wrong and if followed to the degree wanted could in a few generations send us back to the dark ages we my never recover form for other than ala akabar.
I hope Mohamad is a good space traveler because western civilization will be crushed into dust and only a memory of the well intelligent ones at that time scale.
Good night all you fellow gaias out there in paradise.
