Tracking Trash Reflection Question

The Gulf of Mexico has no apparent "Garbage Pile," where do you think the garbage from the Mississippi River goes once it is in the Gulf?

This is sort of a guess, but I think the trash goes into the Caribbean Sea. Am I right?

I believe that the trash rides the waves into the ocean where it just become part of the ecosystem.

The trash never goes away, it constantly stays on the move.

so we are in a "large landfill" in the gulf? If there is no specific place that it goes...it all just stays there...? Nice.
