Plastics all over the world are gradually becoming a big world problem. Eight million tons of plastic is thrown away in the ocean every year. According to Laura Parker of National Geographic magazine February 13, 2015, "We have 5 trillion tons of plastic in the ocean," 8 million tons of plastic was dumped into the ocean every year. " One of the reasons that our ocean is not completely filled with plastic is due to "plastic island". The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is the main and largest patch. There are places somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean and the Indian Ocean. These garbage patches are not very familiar to us but are floating in remote areas of the ocean.

A plastic bag, together with other garbage in the ocean, forms a large amount of garbage, in fact a huge floating dump. The most famous, known as garbage vortex or Great Pacific garbage patch, is larger than Texas. Ocean currents between Hawaii and the North Pacific created this huge dump. That shame makes it a sightseeing spot

Fact 5: The Pacific Ocean has twice as many trash islands as Texas. The North Pacific circulation near the coast of California is the world's largest marine garbage dump. There, the number of floating plastic parts exceeds the total number of nearby 6 to 1 marine creatures. Fact 6: Oil is the earliest cause of ocean degradation, much more harmful than garbage and garbage. However, due to the actual oil spill, only a small portion (about 12%) of the oil was dumped into the ocean. Most of the oil that causes marine damage is caused by land drainage. Oil spills can cause suffocation of marine organisms, causing changes in behavior and damage to insulation. It basically changes the entire ecosystem of affected areas, such as the long coastline and the deep ocean.

Ocean currents, especially swirling flow, sometimes accumulate plastics in a spiral shape and concentrate on various parts of the ocean. The Great Pacific trash patch in the North Pacific near the coast of California is an example of marine garbage. This is the world's largest marine garbage dumpster, about twice the size of the state in Texas. The plastic in the sea is the result of human cruelty. As the worldwide annual consumption of plastics increases year by year, the amount of plastic waste finally released into the sea has also increased dramatically. Furthermore, in addition to adverse effects on marine ecosystems, plastic contamination affects sightseeing, fishery, and aquaculture sectors, which could adversely affect the economy.
