My comment here:

tom0mason, Thank you for these excellent observations. You write:

"Sure plastic should not be there but we need better information in order to judge the damage done (if any), and to formulate the correct action plan. Merely banning something because as waste it is often dumped in the sea but perhaps doesn’t do much harm, is foolish at best."

You are putting your finger on it. This is what I mean, when I speak of the dumbing down of the population by green mythology ("Ökoverblödung"), a process by which genuine interest in nature is crowded out by the habit of turning the prayer wheels of political correctness, a more convenient but less sincere activity.
