The Great Pacific Garbage Patch

I know what you're thinking - 'There's a garbage patch in the Pacific Ocean?'
I had the same reaction when I first saw a picture of it and heard of it. Yes, it does exist - and it's having a huge impact on wildlife. The GPGP(Great Pacific Garbage Patch)is actually being consumed by unsuspecting, ignorant wildlife, causing indigestion, poisoning, and death.
Do you dare to see a picture of it? Do you want to see what Man has done to the Earth?

In fact, the GPGP is huge - the only reason people don't notice something the size of Texas is that it's in the ocean. Perhaps we, as the creators of it, don't want to see what we've done either.
I posted a photo to show what people have done to the environment so far, in the hope that they would rethink their past actions. Think about it. The Earth can still be saved.
