On Tuesday the 12th of March a lady named Tracy came in to talk to us about the pollution in the
ocean. She started talking to us about the Pacific Garbage Patch, She said she didn’t know how
deep it was but she knew that it was twice the size of Texas, I found out that it is actually 9 feet d
eep. She said that the most garbage they found was 5.6 million litres of rubbish, crazy right! It’s
amazing how much rubbish goes to landfill and how much goes to sea. Tracy told us that there
is lots of sea life swimming around in the garbage patch and I discovered that most of the rubbish
that goes in the ocean ends up in that patch because it is where the oceans meet so there would
be a current from each way.
