Hawaiian beaches struggling with a huge problem. Ocean throws at them huge amounts of garbage. Fragments of boats, jet skis, or old tires. Part is the remains of the tsunami, which in 2011 struck Japan. It picks up a lot of waste so. from synthetic materials. At the beginning it was thought that they are remnants of the disaster in Japan five years ago. However, we conducted a special study and found that a large proportion of ocean currents have also seen from the continental United States and other parts of the world.
The US Agency Oceanic has implemented a special program, through which managed to collect 57 tons of garbage, but it’s still not enough. They represent a huge problem for local authorities, because not only pollute the environment and beautiful Hawaiian beaches, but are beginning to scare away tourists. Seriously threaten the local reef. Waste mistakenly eaten by fish are also looking for food. At the moment, scientists are not yet able to answer or decomposing in their body pieces of plastic have a negative effect on a man who later eats the fish. In this case the research is carried out.
