This is indeed a tragic comment on stewardship of our planet.
I was called to do a little research about my previous post(see below), to be sure I wasn't blowing smoke. Now you can do the same. The Wikipedia article leads to links from agencies such as National Geographic and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration as well as others.
One resource said the size of this deadly patch is as least as big as Texas and perhaps as big as the continent of Africa.
And it is growing. Plastics are the worst component. Let's be careful with our trash, friends. Let's start thinking about reusable containers, biodegradable alternatives to plastics, etc. Please.
