Fiji - another India?
? MSM Conspiracy Theory ?
Been watching cases steadily rising over last two weeks. Anyone hearing anything?
I went and looked up images of the supposed "Gyre" and found that too - images with the shoreline cropped out. Obvious because the next pic would be the same WITH the shoreline.
There's an Aussie guy who has a gardening YouTube channel, and he's done things like bury all KINDS of materials in the garden just to see how long it takes to break down. Almost everything disintegrates in a matter of months, not years. I've seen plastic fall apart - everyone has - just from age. So that whole thing about lasting centuries is just silly.
When I was a kid, I used to dig holes in my back yard, and do general exploring around. I found where buried pieces of styrofoam turned to dust. The micro-biological world has so many species of various things that there is probably a species that can do anything we want if isolated.
I guarantee you a plastic water bottle does not take mere months to break down. Whatever you saw otherwise may have misled you.
I'd say it depends on the composition of the plastic. Not all compounds are equal.
This is true that it depends on the composition, but a standard plastic water bottle, that you see in every store, is not going to break down within a few months.
Thats 100% false
