Would fewer regulations reduce the garbage island in the Pacific?

[QUOTE="Omnipotent, post: 320283, member: 1120"] There are TWO floating islands the size of the USA mainland it was reported 2007-2009 on our ABC, in the Pacific. I posted about it on my MSN news group. It is so alarming to me something should have been done 12 years ago. I gave my reasons on 3rd Rail WHY this is the equal tragedy to de-forestation. When plastic breaks down it reduces to the size of a grain of sand. No big deal in land fill that I am aware of but in the ocean it's a HUGE deal. Why? How would fish fry know the difference between algae and a piece of plastic the size of a grain of sand? They wouldn't know. If the fry eat the plastic, they won't grow and they will die of starvation. Now little fish are as HUGELY important to the Earth's entire food chain because they feed the entire planet... they feed other fish, sea mammals, sea birds and humans. Instead of China and the USA too making bombs... and ALL the western countries for that matter, should band together and get that bloody shit out of the ocean, ASAP!~ [/QUOTE]
