Plastic Will Come Back To Haunt Us.
Many types of plastic are non-biodegradable(especially the first types). All of the plastic that the world uses will not be going anywhere. It will simply get smaller and smaller until every living thing on Earth is drinking water with microscopic toy dolls in it.

I often lose myself in thought trying to wonder where this stuff is going, (nowhere).

Come back?
Koranzite that is true. Plastic is a nightmare in places where they use lots of bottled water but don't have the infrastructure to clear it up.
One of the worst I have seen is Libya.
They just seam to pile it up at the coast, hoping the tide will take it no doubt.

This is already happening. There is a huge swathe of the Pacific ocean covered in bits of plastic bobbing together in the water. It is a vast mass which is larger than many countries.

Scientists have already examined samples on beaches and found that a large percentage of sand consists of small chunks of plastic.
