I saw on good morning america this morning that 25 million tons of debris from the tsunami in japan is expected to hit the west coast...some of which has recently started showing up. Good luck to all those who will be surfing in it.

They should send a littering ticket to Japan, if they can give $29 million to the whaling fleet why not? yes the Tsunami was horrible but giving that money to them is worse and would be breaking laws in most countries.

I wonder if it's radioactive debris?
hopefully not, but it could be possibleQuote:

If none of the pacific trash and all the other junk in the pacific never make it to shore, I dont see why the debris would. a few thousand miles in a salt water bath and I would assume anything that didnt breakdown into nothing wasnt radioactive anyway....
maybe thats just wishfull thinking on my part, but scripps and noaa have been all over it, discrediting that. I would like to see the show you watched though. I am sure they had solid data from someone.

You can bet it will still be safer than NJ water. The EPA says its safe for swimmers....what a scam. NJ ocean is some of the filthiest bodies of filth I have ever been in. That sewage smell near 45th street in Ocean City is priceless.

national news in Seattle is reporting that debris has already hit beaches around Vancouver, BC, Canada. Probably will be hitting Washington beaches soon, if not already.
