The biggest
problem of water pollution it`s just in front of us but as always we seem like
we don`t care and is called “Garbage Island”.
The garbage island
actually exists! And is also known as the plastic soup or garbage soup, the big
spot of the pacific, the garbage patch
of the pacific and other similar names. It is a waste concentration located at
the center of the pacific and it extends a part of Hawaii and California.
It contains a
high concentration of plastic , chemical mud, different metals and all kind of solid
trash trapped by the flowing.
The island was
formed as the result of the ocean pollution in general, all the trash it
contains it’s from different earth factors and from the ships that throw the
wastes at the ocean these are some earth factors:
ü The factories waste.
ü The people that buy the products because
they improve the production of the factory far away from try to close it.
ü The garbage produced by the people and thrown
in the ocean.
ü The trash that travels from the rivers, it
arrives into the sea and becomes part of this island.
The most affected for this are the sea animals, often some turtles and sea
birds get confused with the plastic bag and they think is some food, and they get strangulated.
In the microscopic level some type of floating garbage absorb organic
pollution that if it get ingested for
any animal, causes hormonal disorders, also the infected animals can be eaten
for another bigger animal and the problem have just grown.
Can
you imagine eating an infected fish? These
are some consequences of the garbage island, so if we don`t do anything, the
question is eventually if it grows would exist any sea?
Wow! It really seems like a lot of trash, it’s really sad that we don`t care about what we waste and it’s horrible that we keep doing.

In my opinion,the island is a very important source because of the water and it is very worrying the situation that finally we create, and we can see in the damages and benefits.

Your blog is great! We need to take care of the water, but not only saving water but also taking care of rivers, lakes and oceans. In Mexico, unfortunately, we don't take care of them and we pollute them (factories and people).
