I don't think you did. So far away that we never think of it.

CG1 "Dances with fish"
I was a Crew Chief on C133B aircraft out of Travis AFB CA in 1966. We diverted into Midway with Radar problems. The Navy owned the place at the time, not sure about now. Got the Radar fixed but not before we had to go into a minimum 15 hour crew rest. Go out to Preflight the next morning and one of those DoDo birds was sitting out near the right wing tip. We left it be as they are very clumsy at take off. Fired up all 4 engines, it didn't move. Taxied to the end of the runway, didn't move. Ran all 4 engines to power, still there. Started takeoff roll, loadmaster was watching out of a porthole window. Said at about 30 knots, it fell off, hit the runway, got up and walked away.
I have seen TV segments and newspaper articles that report a lot of that plastic is from the Japan tsunami that hit in March or April of 2011. All that plastic washed out to sea and is just there in the Pacific floating around. Obviously the Gooney birds (Albatross) are eating it. One TV segment I saw said that the "plastic trash" from Japan has reached Hawaii and it won't be long before it reaches the US west coast. Again, from Japan. The Gooney's are beautiful sea birds that are great flyers. Their only problem is that they do a terrible job of takeoff and landing, and aren't very particular about what they eat. Obviously it's a tragedy.
While garbage from the 2011 Japan tsunami is definitely part of it, the Pacific garbage patch has been around a long time and I doubt the debris from the tsunami makes up more than a tiny fraction of it. It covers an area approximately the size of Texas. The NOAA surmised its existence studying ocean currents, and their predictions were confirmed in 1997.
