My $0.02: no.
A) The research is still very much in its infancy. We don't know how big of a deal microplastics are to human health yet. In a couple years we'll have a better idea.
B) There's not much you can do about them. This is compounded by A). Maybe certain types, sizes, forms of exposure etc. are more significant? We don't know any of this yet.
C) You have a limited capacity for anxiety without going crazy, allocate it wisely. If we want to be anxious about our health, for most people being anxious about diet and exercise habits will yield better returns than just about anything else...!
- dwaltrip 3y agoC is so important.
- bamboozled 3y agoYou already kind of know that it would be better if our bodies weren't infiltrated with microplastics though don't you?
- DrThunder 3y agoYes, so offer an alternative. How will you keep everyone from dying from food-borne illnesses? What about all the items we manufacture that REQUIRE plastics? We're not using them just because it's fun and we like loading people with plastic bits. It would be better if disease magically didn't exist too but that's a useless thing to say.
