Midway Island plastic trash
Am reading Moby Duck, which traces the paths plastic toy ducks took around the world's oceans after a container full of them fell into the North Pacific. The amount of plastic out there boggles the mind. A dead baby bird on Midway was found to have more than 200 pieces of plastic in its little body. Clean up crews have collected over 3 million disposable lighters there.
