Planet vs. Plastic

About 94% of Tap water samples tested from the USA were contaminated with plastic. Lebanon and India follow with 94% and 82% of samples found with plastic.

The Water samples from Europe were the less contaminated with only about 72% plastic contamination.

The issue with plastic is that it never degrades completely.

People ingests micro plastic through seafood as plastic residues end up in our oceans.

There is not much research on the impact of humans consuming micro plastic through food; but a toxicology stated that “Chemicals from plastics are a constant part of our daily diet.

Plastics leach chemicals including endocrine- disrupting plasticizers like BPA or phthalates, flame retardants, and even toxic heavy metals that are all absorbed into our diets and bodies.”
