Re:Pollution from tire wear is worse than exhaust emissions? by Sam777666 on Sunday March 08, 2020 @01:16PM (#22519180)
In January there was this report: Microscopic pieces of plastic have been discovered in the most remote locations, from the depths of the ocean to Arctic ice. Another place that plastic is appearing is inside our bodies. We’re breathing microplastic, eating it and drinking plastic-infused water every day.Plastic does not biodegrade. Instead, it breaks down into smaller pieces, and ultimately ends up everywhere, including in the food chain. Pieces that are less than five millimeters in length, around the size of a sesame seed, are called “microplastics.” https://graphics.reuters.com/ENVIRONMENT-PLASTIC/0100B4TF2MQ...
