A team of scientists travels to the Pacific Ocean to study the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, a huge accumulation of plastic waste. For nearly three weeks, researchers collect samples of plastic and marine organisms to analyze the effects of pollution on ocean life and document the scale of the problem.

The book includes photographs by Annie Crawley, taken during the SEAPLEX expedition, and was recognized by the Green Earth Book Award and the Junior Library Guild Selection.
