Garbage Patch

Name given to large marinal areas where rubbish collects in what has become known as the 'Subtropic Gyro': a gigantic whirlpool in the middle of the the North Pacific ocean nicknamed 'Strangelove Ocean'! (refers of course to the old Dr. himself!) Concerned scientists has called these no-fish areas 'dead zones'* where there is shortage of life-affirming O2. Other concerns relating to the depleted sealife-forms are the coral areas in the Great Barrier Reef that marine biologists call these vulnerable pollution-sensitive 'bleached'-out corals 'sea reserves', 'marine rainforests' or collectively 'endangered oceans'! *Also called OMZs (oxygen-mnimum zones), 'paper parks'.
