He was baffled that his entire career, he was wrong. Then others go on to speculate how primates made the trip millions of years ago and then evolved. I think we all assume way too much for our own good. We should be curious and investigate, but never make assumptions into facts.

Vessels and ships are still allowed to dump garbage and waste in the ocean... Even many chemicals are allowed to be dumped... and the kicker is, even if you change the rules how are you going to enforce what a ship does hundreds of miles out in the ocean with no other vessels around? I'm sorry but that treaty won't stop plastics going into our oceans. Many regions on the coast are so poor they really don't have the luxury to discard plastics from their daily lives, or setup recycling facilities to ensure there is a place for all their garbage/recycling to go. Not to mention a vast majority of those plastics are from global fishing industry... Lines and netting are pretty much all made from plastic these days, and there is no valid alternative for fishing vessels that wouldn't cut into their profits or their ability to fish most effectively. That treaty is something politicians (around the world) will use to add onto their list of credentials to further themselves in politics and create the mirage of ethical, green, clean energy candidate... But expecting people everywhere around the world to just stop depositing plastics into the ocean at the same time? The impact there will be minimal at best. The focus shouldn't be on how to prevent the problem because that is too unrealistic, the focus should be on how to clean it up.

Does this actually mean that the dock only weighed 80tons or is it 180tons(dock) + 100tons(of marine ocean surfers) = 280tons overall(dock + creepy ocean clingy hitchhikers)

The Japanese have been through so many cataclysmic events, including several tsunamis over several thousands of years, and have had two of their cities nuked. Not too many countries can even come close to having experienced anything close to this collection of macabre times. But the Japanese people always manage to get through the worst times and come out shining. Third largest economy and they manufacture goods so high quality, that others can only imitate their methods, usually unsuccessfully. Their crime rate is close to zero, and you don't hear of their citizens entering a drugstore with a bag bigger than Santa's and filling it and shoplifting dozens of products. What has gotten into some of these young people nowadays? How do people justify taking things from another without just compensation for the items?

Feel free at any time to enlighten all of us "outsiders," including any and all of these "old and outdated" professors/deans/professionals who dedicated their lives to concentrate on complicated narrowed-in subjects that they will specialize in... If ANY of these so called clueless individuals might have even the slightest clue or believes that we might ever achieve something like how to travel at the speed of light through what's considered "normal space." Sure maybe at some point we might "beat" the speed of light(currently known as the "cosmic speed limit") if scientist can somehow figure out the physics and energy required for something like the concept of a worm hole to even be created; as well as we should all try and aim to reliably utilize these "cosmic short cuts" in order to travel the unimaginably long distances in space. Maybe something like trying a tactic such as pumping damn near unlimited amounts of energy into a VERY concentrated and focused area in space. Good freakin' luck with whoever tries entering a worm hole first, never mind where and when you might get sent into this immensely vast and unimaginably large universe/reality. I mean, if we could only find feasible way to get worm holes working reliably then whatever brave f'n soul tries out going through that bad mama-jamma first might end up getting sent half way across the universe( halfway to our "cosmic horizon") which afterword's I guess it would be super fantastic that we figured out how to do something like easily "spread the seed of humanity/life itself" across this universe. Unfortunately communication at that point will take an ungodly amount of time to send back and fourth so good luck figuring out how to communicate with a vessel(s) that traveled into and through a worm hole. But hey, who knows, maybe humanity will get lucky and figure out a way to use physics and quantum entanglement to maybe send either a "real" or morse code like messages to where ever the (now)missing space ship went.

Us humans always forget that while humans are also dying, we’re taking the planet with us. The pandemic made us selfish on a micro level, so much so that we made so much waste from medical masks, disposable gloves and IV’s and other medical tools. Don’t get me wrong, I WANT IV’s to be disposable, I just want the, to be more recyclable in the future ☺️

Japanese: We feel responsible for the docks and so contribute to their cleanup. USA, what about all the CO2, trash, toxins, and toxic thought patterns we've spread? Eh, as GOPpers will sagely say while using limited liability laws, "Personal responsibility is for poor people and small countries".

This is so amazing to see those things, so heavy, did not sink but keep drifting away and up on the U.S. beach. That vessel, that Harley, that football, etc. were so remarkable to look at. Also those invasive species came so far away..

The bit where Japan had made a fund to send money to the US because they felt responsible is frankly hilarious to me because this is something the US would absolutely never do. In fact the US does the total opposite.

Ok it's not "everything" just to understand this, but there are details that will change as new data comes in. That's what's happened here. Honestly I never thought such a thing *should* have been considered impossible. Sadly this still isn't the most popular way of having invasive species come to our shores, that distinction still belongs to exotic animal and plant importers, but we've had plenty come in by hitch hiking on ocean going vessels, like zebra mussels. That's why I really can't understand why any marine biologist would have doubted this possibility.

Why haven't trans oceanic species rafted to other ecosystems before? In all likelyhood there have been many trans oceanic rafted species in the past. Look at Hiwaii or The Gallapagos or any volcanic islands. Evolution is going on all around us, even to us, but for some reason we dismiss intoduced species or even species hybridization are as natural as species extinction. Even our own one day. I'm all for conservation, but I am tired of huminity not accepting that they are a force in natural selection. We are part of nature, and we should be good stewarts to our earth, but we are not as seperate from the whole process as we like to feel

While there was FAR more debris coming from Japan after the earthquake, debris has been coming for centuries. I have seen things on glass floats, plastic floats, and closed bottles. Some wood debris must be making it to the west coast o the US that is not associated with the tsunami. On a cruise from LA to Hawaii, we went through a large patch with many large glass and plastic Japanese fishing floats.
