Im not entirely against plastic, since you are right there are some benefits. The main problem the is the life cycle of the current common plastic. It's true that plastic disintegrates when it is on the water but it takes too long. The main problem is that it attracts contaminants and because of its bright colors animals often confuse them with food. The minute they start eating this the whole food chain gets messed up!
