The article left me with a lot of questions. What does "bottled" water even mean? Is it bottled in PET or glass? "Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) was common, which is not unusual as it’s what many water bottles are made of". Right but what about the samples in question?
Also "microplastics are showing up literally everywhere on Earth – from the bottom of oceans to the top of mountains". But what about deep fountains, where the mineral water we drink at home is gathered? Maybe the 40m of soil filters the particles, maybe not.
