TVs, fridges and fishing boats: How TWENTY MILLION tons of Japan tsunami debris is closing in on Hawaii

From the Daily Mail.  Excerpts:

Televisions, fridges and furniture pieces are heading for Hawaii, as a huge amount of debris from Japan’s earthquake sails across the Pacific.



Up to 20 million tons of debris from the earthquake in March is traveling faster than expected and could reach the U.S. West Coast in three years.


A Russian ship’s crew spotted the debris - which included a 20ft long fishing boat - last month after passing the Midway Islands.

This is also the path that all the radioactive waste water TEPCO has been releasing into the ocean will travel.  So we've got that to look forward to, which is nice..  But by then, I'm sure it won't matter..
