Microplastics Are Everywhere

Lately I've been on a kick to avoid microplastics as much as possible, after reading so many articles about their omnipresence.

So I bought a water bottle with a filter that traps 99.99% of the microplastics in the water I drink.

I felt pretty good, like I was taking positive steps.

Then I read this about microplastics even being in the air we breath.

Can't win.
