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?
I hate to be repetitive;
But if you drink you’re gonna die!
and if you don’t drink you’re gonna die...
So why die thirsty ?!
Reminds me of being a kid staying at a friend's farm in the countryside for a week. Filled a glass with water from the kitchen tap, discolored water came out along with a tiny tadpole. I asked him where the water came from, and my friend said "Remember the pond we played at yesterday with the frogs?". I said "Cool!" and drank the water.
