Should have been outlawed immediately.
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
OK, but they're already in us. How we gonna get that shit out?
I've heard about scientists making breakthroughs for filtering plastic out of water in a way we can apply to our water management systems. This type of thing takes a long time to develop and even longer to implement without the help from government policies and funding. So uh... Things are happening... Very slowly.
The biggest source of microplastics you consume is actually from your clothing. So wear natural fibers if you can
Think of the shareholders!!
you forgot the exploitation of the proletariat step!
That step never stopped. It just used to be called feudalism.
That's where Vitamin P comes from.
We are fucked aren't we?
Not just yet! At least it's not acid rain right?
Just you wait. Given some of the dumb things that have come out of people's mouths, I would definitely not be surprised to see a headline like:
BREAKING: Corporate scientists suggest microplastic problem be solved with acid rain.
gets caught in an acid rain storm
Trips balls
Yet
Nah, we'll just filter all the water on Earth.
Humans consist of water mostly too
