Sure, I guess my point is that it's not a simple equation. Personally, I think the plastics in the ocean are probably more harmful than the emissions required to clean it up, but it's not as simple as saying "look, we cleaned it up and now there's x-amount less pollution". I probably shouldn't make such brief, inarticulate comments.
