About 80 percent of the debris nestled in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch comes from land, much of which is plastic bags, bottles and other consumer products. Free-floating fishing nets make up another 10 percent, or about 705,000 tons, according to U.N. estimates. The rest comes largely from boaters, offshore oil rigs and large cargo ships, which drop about 10,000 steel containers into the sea each year full of things like hockey pads, computer monitors, resin pellets and LEGO octopuses.

So go ahead and look for used car parts that will bring your favorite car back to life. It does not matter how big or how small the part is, salvage yards make every effort to salvage as much as they can from every car that is parked in their yard to be recycled.

In this case, proceed to your nearest car dealers or check for your car's warranty policy. Lastly, make sure to double-check the part you ordered for its specifics. Some parts may not fit it in to your car just because they have a different number.
