The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is a massive trash vortex made up of disintegrated plastic. The pollution in the North Pacific Gyre is almost impossible to get rid of, which harms not only the marine life, but humans. The plastic litter that comes from takeout orders and trash at fast food restaurants has increasingly been making its way into our oceans. The NRDC has named Burger King as one of the biggest culprits for this plastic pollution. It's important for the public to capture the attention of this company and demand for better sustainability measures.
