Atlantic Ocean's Own Garbage Patch
- "We found a region fairly far north in the Atlantic Ocean where this debris appears to be concentrated and remains over long periods of time. More than 80% of the plastic pieces we collected in the tows were found between 22 and 38 degrees north." - quote from Dr. Kara Lavender Law; quote appeared in this BBC article.
