Sounds like proper sewage processing and landfills would be better and faster solutions to A and B.

Then we can also talk about Asia being the primary source of the trash in oceans...

1. People throw trash everywhere. You'll see trash on Mount Everest, you'll see it in a random forest in Eastern Europe.

2. Landfills are not enough. Rich countries just "export" their trash for storage in poor countries.

We're just making too much trash, there's no "proper" or "better". Reduce, reuse, recyle. Recycle is mostly a lie.

We need reduce and reuse.

In Poland it became harder to export trash to other countries, so instead landfill owners started burning all their trash to make space for new. Commentators refer to it jokingly as "storing trash in the cloud".

That's true, but doesn't mean much. Just like for poisons, dosage is important.
