Are you worried about microplastics?
Are you worried about microplastics?
I've been more and more conscious about microplastics. I was not aware that the laundry and dishwasher pods are just plastic which then goes into the water system.
What can be done to prevent microplastics?

Aren't laundry and dishwasher pods basically gelatin? Which isn't plastic, it's made from animal collagen.
Edit: I have educated myself, and it's PVA; which is essentially wood-glue. PVA is a biodegradable acetate which dissolves completely in water.
It seems that some are made of PVA. It is disputed how damaging PVA is in the water system. New York is considering a ban on it
