I'm not advocating for creating more environmental pitfalls such as the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, which is a floating mass of trash in the Pacific Ocean that measures 2X the size of Texas (620,000 square miles; 1.6 million square kilometers). 

But I do find it fascinating how living things will adapt and learn to thrive in such an environment. Maybe even new forms of life could be discovered there. 

It's life. Just evolving. 

(That said, fascinating or not, can we get rid of the massive floating pile of trash in the oceans, please? Thank you.)
