What gets worse is the trash that doesn’t end up in our beaches stays in the ocean. Although it is not hard to find debris scattered throughout the entire ocean, the currents in the ocean lead to much of the plastic and other waste to congregate into a single area. Although the size of this area is not known due to much of the plastic being too small to sea with the naked human eye, and being underwater, the estimated size of these debris zones go up to being the size of Texas, if not larger. However don’t be fooled, it’s not just visible islands of plastic that are the problem as stated by Darby Hoover, senior resource specialist at Natural Resources Defense Council, “A lot of people think of an island of floating garbage . . . it’s much more diffuse than that. All of our oceans are plastic soups- everywhere you can go”. There are many instances were wildlife has died due to consuming or getting caught in the plastic in this area, especially the jellyfish. In the multiple debris zones throughout the oceans, the jellyfish mortality rate is climbing as they very often get tangled in the floating debris. However, marine pollution does not stop with carbon emissions and human waste. Many fertilizers used in farms are very harmful to ocean life. There are many ways fertilizer gets into the ocean as well, runoff from farms being one of them. This fertilizer contaminates the water and ends up with the death of many microorganisms such phytoplankton, which is a vital part of the ecosystem. If harmful fertilizers continue to be used, the stability of the ecosystem could deteriorate very
