Couple things.

1. As much as I support China and trust them to be the new leaders of environmental protections, unless something is done drastically to start actively filtering out these chemicals and stop putting more into the environment, I truly believe we are doomed. Insect life across the globe has plummeted. I look into my garden and the lack of insects is startling. Add the fact the US EPA regs are getting gutted, any positive movement on China's part in controlling them is about to be countered by the US increasing its pollution.

2. Micro plastics are not the same as PFAS I believe? PFAS are quite a bit worse as I understand?

3. Got.... Got a source on the blackberry/, blueberry thing? Cause that sounds dope.

4. As far as regular (non-PFAS) micro plastics are concerned, you can also rinse foods with small amounts of citrus oils to remove microplastics. Citrus "essential oils" (EOs) are like 98% d-limonene. Which is an extremely effective and volatile organic solvent. One of the best naturally occuring ones on earth. Put a drop of orange oil on a Styrofoam cup sometime and see what happens. The EOs of citrus fruit in a little water will dissolve the normally hydrophobic microplastics on vegetables (usually in the form of pesticides and herbicides. All that shit is basically different forms of plastic). Added note, this is why most cleaners and degreasers are citrus scented. It's not just for scent. It's literally part of the cleaner. It's amazing stuff. I could go on but I'll stop here. Unless anyone wants more random facts about it. lol
