Why Legos have been washing up on U.K. shores for decades

Legos have been washing up on U.K. shores for decades, dating back to a major spill in 1997. This phenomenon is a result of cargo ships losing containers filled with Legos during storms. The plastic toys are lightweight and buoyant, allowing them to float across the ocean and eventually wash up on beaches. The Lego Spill serves as a reminder of the environmental impact of maritime accidents and the long-lasting effects they can have on our oceans.
