The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is a collection of mostly plastic marine debris located in the North Pacific Ocean. A documentary entitled “Plastic Paradise: The Great Pacific Garbage Patch,” offered a lot of haunting insights on where all the plastic we consume really goes. An alarming amount of it pollutes our oceans and harms nearby marine wildlife.


Plastic takes around 450 years to degrade on average. [1] Some plastic bottles even take up to 1,000 years. We have become very dependent on plastic. It is durable, relatively low cost, and easy to mold.

Every year, our production and consumption of these synthetic products continue to increase. While there have been some efforts to recycle the plastic, most of it ends up in our landfills. But there is something even more disturbing than plastic in our garbage dumping grounds: garbage patches in our water.

While plastic is relatively strong, it tends to break down into small particles over time. The small particles of plastic found in our oceans make up these garbage patches. Note that these are not solid islands – the Pacific Garbage Patch is like a soup of plastic debris floating around in the ocean. [2] The plastic particles are carried by ocean gyres which keep the garbage islands together while moving around our oceans.

The Great Pacific Garbage Patch

There are five major ocean gyres. An ocean gyre is a large system of circulating ocean currents involved with large wind movements. [3] These include the Indian Ocean Gyre, North Atlantic Gyre, North Pacific Gyre, South Atlantic Gyre, and the South Pacific Gyre.

Within the five gyres, there are three major garbage patches aka. trash vortices: Indian Ocean Garbage Patch, North Atlantic Garbage Patch, and the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. A smaller garbage patch is also found in the Mediterranean Sea, known as the Mediterranean Sea Garbage Patch. Charles Moore – sea captain, surfer, and scientific researcher – discovered the trash vortex in 1997. [4] He believes that these garbage patches will likely double in size in the next ten years. How bad will it have to get before we step up and take massive action? We are all responsible.


The documentary focuses mainly on the Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch. The trash vortex spans waters from the West Coast of North America all the way to Japan. The plastic and waste found within the North Pacific Gyre alone weighed approximately 7 million tons. It is said to span an area twice the size of Texas. [3]

No one can really know just how much trash is in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. It is spread over too large an area for scientists to measure. Additionally, much of the trash is submerged and cannot be seen from the surface, perhaps sinking to a depth of several meters. However, it is apparent that most of the debris is made up of plastic. Over time, the sun breaks down these plastics into tinier pieces through photodegradation. These small pieces of plastic are known as microplastics. [5] Denser debris sinks several centimeters or even meters beneath the surface, making it very difficult to measure the trash vortex’s area fully.

This Crazy Off Grid Device Literally Makes Drinkable Water From Fresh Air:

According to NASA, the U.S. is expecting a 100-YEAR LONG MEGADROUGHT.

It's already begun. Ask the farmers in California. They know.

Every survivalist knows that water is of critical importance. You NEED an independent water source that you can count on!

As an interesting "survival rehearsal" - imagine that you turned the tap on right now and nothing came out. How long would you last?

But what if there was another water source literally hidden in plain sight. That's right, I'm talking about the atmosphere!

The amazing thing about getting water from the natural moisture in the air... is that it is ALWAYS available.

This gives you real water security!

😳 What Tinnitus Does To Your Brain Cells (And How To Stop It)

After 47 years of studies and countless brain scans done on more than 2,400 tinnitus patients, scientists at the MIT Institute found that in a shocking 96% of cases, tinnitus was actually shrinking their brain cells.

As it turns out, tinnitus and brain health are strongly linked.

Even more interesting: The reason why top army officials are not deaf after decades of hearing machine guns, bombs going off and helicopter noises…

Is because they are using something called "the wire method", a simple protocol inspired by a classified surgery on deaf people from the 1950s...

Lost Ways Of Survival Video

An amazing discovery in an abandoned house in Austin, Texas: A lost book of amazing survival knowledge, believed to have been long vanished to history, has been found in a dusty drawer in the house which belonged to a guy named Claude Davis.

Remember... back in those days, there was no electricity... no refrigerators... no law enforcement... and certainly no grocery store or supermarkets... Some of these exceptional skills are hundreds of years of old and they were learned the hard way by the early pioneers.

We've lost to history so much survival knowledge that we've become clueless compared to what our great grandfathers did or built on a daily basis to sustain their families.

Neighbors said that for the last couple of years Claude has tried to unearth and learn the forgotten ways of our great-grandparents and claimed to have found a secret of gargantuan proportions. A secret that he is about to reveal together with 3 old teachings that will change everything you think you know about preparedness:

Do not, I repeat do NOT do what these lunatics did! Can you spot the "fatal mistake" they made?

There's a general belief that if you bury a shipping container you can create an awesome root cellar / storm shelter / survival bunker.

But is a shipping container strong enough to handle the pressure?

I Can't Help Showing This Off:

If you haven't heard of Claude Davis yet do yourself a huge favor and watch this video.

One of the smartest guys I ever had the pleasure of meeting, Claude set-up a unique prepping system that changed his life forever.

I already tried it myself and let me tell... you I was completely blown away... His surprising tactics could make your life easier and give you the peace of mind you deserve.
