Plastic Ocean

Our oceans have no boundaries, and when it comes to rubbish in the sea, that means it’s everyone’s problem.

All caught up

Gyres are large rotating currents in our ocean where water spirals around. It’s where much of the litter that is floating in the sea collects. The five main gyres across the globe collect man-made debris, especially plastic objects.

Marine litter really is a global issue.

Floating rubbish dumps

The North Pacific Gyre contains

the biggest rubbish dump on the

planet. Nicknamed the ‘Great Pacific

Garbage Patch’, it’s estimated to

be almost twice the size of the

UK! In this area, there’s 6 times

more plastic than plankton.

You can make a difference Never drop litter, recycle more and reduce the amount of plastic you use.!
