Boo freakin hoi. If tap water sucks, drink bottled water. Oh wait, they are in plastic bottles.
>>Researchers dont know exactly how the tiny pieces of plastic are entering the water tables that cities use for tap water, but tons of plastic fibers from clothes discharged in wastewater, mishandled plastic waste, synthetic fibers in the atmosphere, tire dust washed into storm drains and streams are a few of the possible ways such large-scale contamination could be occurring.
Water comes to your tap through....PVC pipes.
Unless you are in Flint.

Sounds like someone with an agenda engaged in selective sampling.

OK, so you have got your choice of drinking a glass of water with microscopic sterilized fecal material or the same quantity of microscopic pieces of plastic... which would you choose?
“Sounds like someone with an agenda engaged in selective sampling.”
Typical eco target bs posing as news.
More accurate...."through plastic pipes". PVC isn't the only plastic used for water pipe fabrication. Though your basic point is "on target".
If plastic goes into a "sanitary landfill", it will NOT "re-enter the environment. Landfills are specifically designed and built to prevent groundwater from being exchanged with the waste zone.
Article is scare-mongering bullshit.
Thank god for rainwater and pure grain alcohol!
Scotch disolves it
Plastic is inert.
Even with BPA and other contaminants, once reduced to microscopic it’s likely unbound from those chemicals.
I don’t think the plastic itself is an issue.
However, I believe there is reason for concern about the accumulation of large deposits screwing up sea life and it’s production definitely has an impact.
If the UN actually wanted to be useful they would contract a dozen “sweeper” ships to patrol the worlds oceans to suck up the plastic vortex’s in areas around the world.
These vortex’s seem to have a magical ability to attract enormous numbers of plastic containers in one place. It’s like mother earth is telling us “sweep here”.
Alas, nobody likes a good idea any more.
I just had a freaky Dr. Strangelove/Graduate mashup: One word, Mandrake- plastics.
General Ripper, are you trying to seduce me?
“I have started to think that some of our tranny and homo society might be as a result of this.”
It’s the new fluoridation.
It’s a Communist subversion and the international Communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.
I just spoke to General Jack D. Ripper last night on this matter and he confirmed it, once again.
