The Pacific Ocean has been used as a toilet by billions of humans for many years, and a Texas-sized island of plastic garbage has accumulated in an area called the North Pacific Gyre. This area, fed by prevailing ocean currents and winds, holds a gigantic "island" of plastic trash several feet thick, swirling like a huge, loose, plastic bowel movement in what used to be a pristine ocean. Congratulations, Homo Sapiens; you've achieved dominion over the earth and have turned it into a dump.
