Microplastics have also recently been discovered in human blood, placentas and breast milk, indicating widespread contamination of people’s bodies. Vast amounts of plastic waste are dumped in the environment and microplastics have polluted the entire planet, from the summit of Mount Everest to the deepest oceans. In March, doctors warned of potentially life-threatening effects after finding a substantially raised risk of stroke, heart attack and earlier death in people whose blood vessels were contaminated with microscopic plastics. The study, published in the journal Toxicological Sciences, involved dissolving the tissue samples and then analysing the plastic that remained. The human testes had been routinely collected by the New Mexico Office of the Medical Investigator and were available following a seven-year storage requirement after which the samples are usually discarded. Recent studies in mice have reported that microplastics reduced sperm count and caused abnormalities and hormone disruptions. — Saved 72% of original text.

Jokes on you BP, I’m getting mine removed anyways!
In all seriousness though, this is concerning.

If we want to get conservatives on board with environmental protections, we should just start a conspiracy that the perceived rise in trans people, gays, and autistics is due to plastic ester groups in the environment. Then tell them that these groups are represented in the media so much now because the petrolium companies don’t want us to see it as a problem when the science breaks.
Brb, gotta go convince some trumpers single use plastic is making their kids gay.

I'm visualizing sperm in plastic armor. Think Imperial stormtroopers. The Death Stars were giant balls, after all🫠😆

I remember conservative conspiracy types were all over the idea that covid was going to be uncontainably catastrophic right up until the pandemic really happened and the party line was suddenly that actually the virus isn’t real after all, at which point they did an about face rather than delivering actually well deserved "told you so"s.
Point being, as soon as they see
the petrolium companies don’t want us to see it as a problem
They will suspect this sentiment is disloyal to their political tribe and definitely automatically discard it on that basis.

I think maybe you did, and so did I. “Every human testicle.” Question is: when did they sneakily test everyone’s testicles?

Huh. I wonder if maybe covering nearly every single product in it, mixing cloth with it, and generally using it for everything large or small might not have been the way to avoid being completely full or microplastics.
