📏Microplastics are tiny particles of plastic that measure less than 5 millimeters in size.

They are formed from the breakdown of larger plastic items, such as bottles, bags, and packaging, as well as from the release of synthetic fibers during washing.

Microplastics can also be intentionally manufactured for use in various products.

🌊They can be found in various environments, including freshwater, marine environments, and even in the air we breathe.

⚠️However, due to their small size, they are often difficult to detect and remove, posing potential risks to ecosystems and even human health.

🌍 There is still a way to go but this ban is a great step forward for the planet and our health.
