Germany and Belgium have been hit hard by deadly floods this summer. This leads to great destruction, and with it a lot of rubbish. Furniture, toys, car parts and building material fell out and floated into the sea with the floodwaters.
But where does this rubbish end up?
There are many indications that it will end up in the sea gap in Frøya municipality in Trøndelag. Here they are now preparing for a huge cleaning job.
Odd Arne Arnesen, general manager at Mausund Field Station on Frøya, says it is a natural explanation for why the station can expect large amounts of rubbish from the flood in Germany.
– The Gulf Stream strikes east right outside here and hits us quite hard. It settles as a filter for large parts of the coast. Therefore, much of the waste goes through the islands here and north, Andersen tells TV 2.
