When talking about environmental protection, “reducing plastic” is a familiar slogan, but the threat of “microplastics” is far more dangerous. These are plastic fragments or fibers smaller than 5 millimeters. They originate 6 from intentionally manufactured for industrial use or from larger plastic waste broken down by sunlight, weathering or wave action. Surprisingly, modern fashion is a major contributor. Research indicates that synthetic fabrics, like polyester or nylon used in activewear, 7 thousands of “microfibers” during one single laundry cycle. These fibers are so tiny that they bypass wastewater treatment filters and flow directly into the ocean. Once microplastics enter the ocean, they are not mere trash but become 8 “disguised food,” causing damage to not only marine life but also humans. Recent scientific studies have detected microplastics in human placentas, blood, and lung tissue, 9 can lead to serious health problems to people. We need to remind ourselves that the ocean is not a bottomless trash can. Microplastics are a mirror 10 the consequences of our “throwaway culture.” Understanding this issue is not just about gaining knowledge. More importantly, it is about becoming conscious citizens who can mend the broken relationship between humanity and nature.
