Are any politicians doing something about this? The headline isn't an exaggeration. They analyzed 52 cadaver brains over a decade. Plastics increased 50%, and the avg amount in each brain was 7g. 😐 https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2025/02/03/microplastics-brain-body-accumulation-study/78005554007/

Ugh. How do you even fight this? I can’t remember if it was @ted or @keccers.eth who posted articles about a team doing microplastic research in CA and it was high end respectable brands that were full of them. It was terrifying!

Unfortunately probably need to prove it is causing health problems before it can be regulated. But seems pretty obviously bad.
