We know about plastic, it's everywhere! But do you know about micro-plastics, these fine particles that are now found almost everywhere? Understand this fact and the presence of these harmful elements that you unfortunately come across more and more often, especially in your tap water!
Europe is the region of the world least affected by microplastic water pollution, with... almost 3/4 of the contaminated samples! So we can't really celebrate this victory! All the more so as, associated with the bacteria and toxic substances they are capable of carrying, we can only be very suspicious about their intrusion into the tap water we consume.
What will become of these particles in our body, where will they be lodged, what will be their long-term consequences? Find out by reading this article from the Guardian.
