Blood donation can help reduce Micoplastics and PFAS in your blood. So if you haven’t given blood in a while it’s worth it for a personal benefit as well as a social one.
My government refuses me to give blood, because I consume weed.
Plastic doesn’t decompose, our bodies do. Fellas I think we found the key to immortality. We must become one with the plastic.
Too much shitposting in this thread.
What’s the impact exactly?
They say microplastics are in every organism, everywhere. Seems like a large enough sample size that we should have an idea of what kind of damage they do?
