Pg. 83 R Read the Great Pacific Garbage Patch article. Marine Debris Patching up the patch Read the Great Pacific Garbage Patch article. As you read answer the following questions: Explain why all the garbage is collecting in one spot. What causes the currents? Where is the trash mainly coming from? How does it affect the marine life? What can we do about it??? Why is all the garbage collecting in one spot. What causes the currents? Pg. 83 R Where is the trash mainly coming from? How does it affect the marine life?

What causes currents? Class discussion

Where is the trash mainly coming from?

How does it effect the marine life?

What can we do about it today to make a difference?

Agree Unsure Agree Both Asia and the USA should clean up the garbage patch and share the responsibility. It is too costly to fix it we should just let it be and worry about not allowing it to get bigger.

P. 83L flip On your map trace the warm currents red and the colder current blue.Then label each current or Gyre.
