Pacific plastic effect on Albatrosses - Documentary Trailer
We've all heard, and some have sailed through, the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. Here is one documentary coming out that outlines the effect on nesting albatrosses on Midway Island.
Powerful.

I must have missed it. Thanks for the comment, but you're right, maybe others missed it also.

Re: Pacific plastic effect on Albatrosses - Documentary Trailer
Very nice find. I hadn't seen it before.
I didn't realize there would be such an impact in that way - just goes to show that all are affected by these
events
