I found this really neat website where you can zoom in or out and rotate the globe of the Earth and see animations of current wind patterns, ocean currents, temperatures, humidity, etc, It s worth checking out at Earth Globe Weather Visualization. In the lower left hand corner, click on the word Earth to display a menu of options. Also the globe can be rotated and zoomed in or out, works especially well with a touchscreen, but that is not necessary. Finally it uses real-time weather data.

"Rivers are the main source of ocean plastic pollution. They are the arteries that carry waste from land to the ocean. Our research found that 1000 rivers are responsible for roughly 80% of the pollution."
"Every year, millions of tons of plastic enter the oceans, of which the majority spills out from rivers. A portion of this plastic travels to ocean garbage patches, getting caught in a vortex of circulating currents. If no action is taken, the plastic will increasingly impact our ecosystems, health, and economies."
Big problems require big solutions
Every year, millions of tons of plastic enter the oceans primarily from rivers. The plastic afloat across the oceans – legacy plastic – isn’t going away by itself. Therefore, solving ocean plastic pollution requires a combination of stemming the inflow and cleaning up what has already accumulated.
The Ocean Cleanup, a non-profit organization, is developing advanced technologies to rid the world’s oceans of plastic. |
