Karmelo Anthony's New Fundraiser Gets SHUT DOWN | Family BEGS For More Money: ‘We’re BROKE!'

In 1992, a cargo ship lost 28,800 plastic bath toys in the Pacific Ocean. The floating ducks, turtles, beavers, and frogs drifted across ocean currents and later washed up in places like Hawaii, Alaska, and even Scotland. Oceanographers tracked where the toys traveled, and the accidental spill helped them better understand how ocean currents move across the world.

The U.S. Navy really does manage a huge forest in Indiana to help repair USS Constitution, the famous wooden warship launched in 1797. At Naval Support Activity Crane, foresters manage more than 50,000 acres of forest and pick strong mature white oak trees for future restorations. These trees help replace old wooden parts on the ship, especially hull planks. Basically, America has a forest growing spare parts for a 200-year-old warship.
