This news report is about a huge area in the Pacific Ocean that is filled with mostly plastic garbage. The garbage collects there because the ocean currents bring it to that area. Itâs a serious problem for the environment because it affects all kinds of marine life.

This news report really shocked me. I had no idea that our use of plastic was creating such a big problem. Thereâs a huge area of the Pacific Ocean full of plastic floating on the water. In my view, people need to use less plastic in their daily lives.

In 1997, a sailor named Charles Moore discovered a large area of floating garbage in the Pacific Ocean near Hawaii. He estimated there were about 3 million tons of garbage. It was 100 feet deep.
