Single accidents have released 500,000 cans of beer, 29,000 yellow ducks (and other bathtub friends), 80,000 Nike sneakers, 5 million Lego toy pieces, and hundreds of thousands of rubber sandals. In addition, at any one time there are millions of chunks of trash and other objects, and fifty or more abandoned vessels, all floating free, carried by the currents on the open ocean. Each year, thousands of these items wash ashore on beaches around the world. Some people study their patterns of distribution, which can reveal much about currents and ocean circulation. When an accident releases a vast number of items, special alerts go out to beachcombers, who watch for them and report the time and place where each object is found.
