Except... That's not how the ocean works? There are localized effects to pollution. You can test this by spilling oil in your nearest ocean. Watch how it disperses, and watch how it doesn't actually disperse that far away from you because of currents and whatnot.

Not justifying the OP, but your statement is really inaccurate.

Okay, but I'm telling the authorities it was your idea.
