From the article:"Though we need to track this, there is still no direct evidence that microplastics in cells lead to untoward health outcomes,"This will get us long before climate does.
I've been following this theme for the past year. It's a subtle health catastrophe far worse and far more immediate that CO2 ppm.
The number of articles at a tying microplastics to a variety of health problems and human beings and also in sea animals. I'm sure there are other articles that are not quite as alarming but if you stop to think about it for a minute that kind of penetration into the body especially into some of the vital organs like liver, kidney or brain simply cannot be good.From the article:"Though we need to track this, there is still no direct evidence that microplastics in cells lead to untoward health outcomes,"
Also from reading the article and looking at the pictures, it is obvious, the particles shown are not micro particles, at all, some pieces easily 3/16"+ in length and 1/8" wide and sharp. I would easily see these in any of the bottled water, I drink from or in the bottom of any glass of tap water.
True, and to tell the truth, I have seen this or an article like this a month or two ago or more. I also think they showed a similar alarming picture, and yes, I did mention to PJ, explaining what I had read, and asking should we be chugging down so much bottle water. If there are actually micro particles of nano-plastics in my Aqaufina from Sam's Club, it would be disquieting. I remember seeing picture of the particles, but do not remember whether it was naked eye/magnifying glass or a significantly high-powered microscope. I suspect maybe the latter, as it jumped out at me the OP linked article.The number of articles at a tying microplastics to a variety of health problems and human beings and also in sea animals.

Micro-plastics don't give fascist tyrants across the globe an avenue to lord over every aspect of your life.This will get us long before climate does.

Well the good news is that cow farts are at their lowest levels since 2012.
US agriculture emissions are the lowest since 2012
A new study showed that “U.S. agriculture represents just under 10% of total U.S. emissions when compared to other economic sectors."www.farmersadvance.com
Nevermind it was because of herd reductions due to high feed, fuel, and fertilizer costs.

I'm not sure if it's better or worse but I'm pretty sure it's not good. Apparently it affects metabolism and hormonal balance negatively.Why? ... we all have micro-plastics inside our cells ... pieces are smell enough to fit inside? ... with the amount of plastic strewn about it's fair to say everyone has plastic bits inside all our cells ... everything ...
Is this better or worse than putting mercury in infant immunizations? ... or feeding ivermectin to the chickens you eat? ...

Ivermectin is a broad-spectrum antiparasitic drug used to treat most worms, lice, scaly leg mites and parasites in chickens. Dosage: 0.4mg/kg
Ah... fashionable frets...
... every month a new thing for people to worry about.
How adorable.
We do seem to have a long list of worries don't we? I know something about microplastics before this but I wasn't aware of the fact that we have all been penetrated by them to the extent that they can be found in every one of our organs. As of yet studies are ongoing to determine exactly what they do to us once they are there.Ah... fashionable frets...

Climate change is already killing millions, and as it worsens, it is going to cause refugees from many parts of the world. In the meantime, we all eat a credit card a week in plastic.This will get us long before climate does.

What are you smoking?What do you mean "apparently" ... if plastic don't decay outside the cell, why would it decay inside the cell ... if anything it's digestible ... torn asunder and remade into chemicals we use and need ... just how different is a plastic chain to DNA? ...
