That's not to say that it isn't true, just that the study is somewhat flawed.

To quote from the link:

  There’s no question that accumulating ocean plastic is a
  problem—but simple factoids can mask the fact that we still
  have a lot to learn about what’s in the world’s oceans.

Sooo? Buisness as usual and ignore the problem?

pwagland never said anything close to that. It is the opposite of conversation to instantly lump anybody who says anything out-of-catechism into an extreme, mortal-enemy-to-the-cause bucket.
