Cars, houses and even fragments of bodies washed away from Japan after the March 11 tsunami were found in America's West Coast.

The authorities here have received reports of huge garbage blocks including cars, tractors, capsized ships and even fragments of dead people who are following the waves and winds of the Pacific Ocean. to the west coast of the United States. Over 200,000 construction works and thousands of people have been swept out to sea after the tsunami in Japan.

According to American oceanographer Curtis Ebbesmeyer, who has spent decades researching and tracking drift objects, the huge amount of rubbish from Japan in the next three years will drift to the US west coast. Some of the first fragments were found on April 7.

After that, they will move towards Hawaii and then back to Asia.All will move in a circle of currents known as the North Pacific Circle . And within the next year, these debris will follow the ocean currents to the coast of Washington, Oregon and California.

Members of the US Navy's 7th Fleet, who have discovered the unusual process of floating rubbish, said they have never seen anything like that and warned of possible debris. become a threat to the sea transportation industry .

Now researcher Curtis Ebbesmeyer is closely monitoring the movement of garbage blocks from Japan. According to him, the pieces of metal can follow the wind to the shore faster, in about 1 year, while the broken wood takes 2-3 times more time. They were trapped in the North Pacific cyclone, so they continued to float, causing danger to commuting boats in the area.
