Go ahead and check your clothes β perhaps they're made from a synthetic fiber. These are all made from plastic:
- nylon
- polyester
- acrylic
- fleece
- spandex
Plastic fibers can be found in these common food items:
- honey
- salt
- beer
- bottled water
And these are just some of the serious medical conditions brought on by microplastics:
cancer
skin conditions
internal disorders
hormone abnormalities
Thankfully we still have a chance to improve the situation. All you have to do is:
- avoid clothes made from synthetic fibers
- avoid "fast fashion" items
- choose durable, high-quality clothes
- use a front-loading washing machine
- reduce how often you wash clothes
- use less laundry detergent and fabric softener
You can also make a difference by sharing this video & educating people about plastic microfibers!
