Garbage Island: An Ocean Full of Plastic (Part 2/3)

As the Gyre sails into view, we realize Garbage Island isn't an island at all. It's something much, much worse. ** Come aboard as we take a cruise to the Northern Gyre in the Pacific Ocean, a spot where currents spin and cycle, churning up tons of plastic into a giant pool of chemical soup, flecked with bits and whole chunks of refuse that cannot biodegrade.
