    yes, that is correct. I never said it would bring your intake to zero. But those appear to be big ways of microplastic intake we can control: food+packaging and food+heat. Harder to control the air you breathe in the city…

      Oh i know you weren’t looking for zero, but reduction and end-user changes won’t fix the issue any more than a bandage on a leaking tire in a flood. It’s just like other pollution issues, it has to be cut off or regulated at the source.
