    The problem is, yes this will impact on a certain number of people who will do something to stop this. But the great majority would ignore, see yet do nothing, see but wait someone else do it, or simply contribute more to the damage like there is nothing to be afraid of.
    So sure. This videos would make a lower percent start to something… and yes, small actions count, but as one moves a certain amount of garbage off the seas, ten more are pouring theirs at the nearby beach.

Those images you showed could have been from anywhere so without you providing absolute proof that they are images of the area affected then you cannot convince me otherwise. One other such clip had scenes from the Japnese sunami showing debris as a pointer to said pollution, it was a lie. The facts are that the garbage patch has a density of 4 pieces per cubic meter, you cannot see it from space or plane and not even if you were in the middle of it in a kayak. Finally anything that floats in the oceans and seas will have things growing on it and sheltering under it, flotsam and jetsam provides many micro biomes in this way and therefore increases bio diversity. Have you ever seen anything about the Sargasso sea, now that is visible from space and is under threat because international policies want to break it apart to maintain shipping routes. Now that WOULD be a travesty.
