The poor old Laysan Albatross certainly drew the short straw when
Albatross feeding territories were handed out, copping the "Great
Pacific Garbage Patch" (North Pacific Gyre) as a significant part of
their feeding territories. And people think that the junk that goes
into the seas just disappears. It wont be long before we are able to
harvest the various oceanic gyres as plastic feed-stocks.
