What about radiation levels? There do not appear to be any independent organizations checking this area. And if there is a connection with the Fukushima radiation it may be in addition to the plastic pollution, and the lack of oxygen in the oceans. If the oceans die, we die. If the world took all the money they spent on military initiatives for one year, and put it into scientific research to save the oceans, it would be more meaningful for the planet and us.
