Fucking gliter getting everywhere
Has anybody heard of any plan or idea to reduce microplastics? We’ve been hearing all this research over the past five years especially about all of the scary places we’re finding microplastics (like our brains, and testicles, and the top of Mt. Everest). I have yet to hear about any studies into reducing microplastics.
The only way to reduce micro plastics is to reduce plastic production. We need to go with paper bags and glass jars or aluminum cans, bamboo straws, etc. the more we reduce, the fewer micro plastics we will add to the environment. I don’t know how dangerous these micro plastics are to life, but I am sure our children will find out.
This starts with corporations.
The masses can start doing paper and glass, but corps are by far way more wasteful with plastics.
3m recently invented a great replacement for packing supplies. Instead of plastic bubble bags you get this paper that opens into cushionlock
i imagine the average high street or mall shop uses more plastic in a month than an average common or garden household uses in a year, and it goes up in magnitude from there.
OK, but they’re already in us. How we gonna get that shit out?
You don’t.
It stays in you, you die, buried, next generation might die with fewer, etc
“That’s the neat part: you don’t!”
The biggest source of microplastics you consume is actually from your clothing. So wear natural fibers if you can
Think of the shareholders!!
That’s where Vitamin P comes from.
