Plastic in Pacific Garbage Patch Has Increase 100-Fold

This Article says that San Diego Researches release an study that revealed plastics on the Garbage Pacific Patches have increased 100 than they were 40 years ago. This was surprising because this study resembles our never ending consumerism, is all reflected on the waste we produce that ends up in the oceans. Is terrible because in a just few years our garbage plastic have increase so much. Even worst it ended up on the ocean and fishes are eating the plastics. It mentions that mosquitos eggs had been found in the plastics and it could have  a huge impact on the ecosystems through the region. Even the terrible tsunami that was on Japan will add mounting on the debris. Well , at that point this debris can be justify for being there because was a natural disaster but the other plastics on the ocean surface is our responsibility. They are the effect of our actions. I will be recycling more and will be reducing my trash. I believe that small changes will make a difference. We all should reduce trash and consume less and live within our means.
