"We need to stop making garbage, not try to clean up the flow that we make."
We need both actually. Stopping the manufacture of junk plastic will not cause the oceans to become cleaner. It will just stop them from getting worse. But in order to make the oceans cleaner, you need to actually remove the pollution that is in them.
Hence, we need to do both.
