Simple Method Removes Microplastics From Water
29th February 2024
Tiny plastic particles, called microplastics, have been detected in our air, food, bottled and tap water, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Now, researchers have found that a simple solution helps rid drinking water of nearly 90% of these potentially harmful particles.
In a new study, published in the journal Environmental Science & Technology Letters, scientists revealed that boiling and filtering water helped remove nearly 90% of the certain tiny plastic particles, which were found in 129 of 159 water samples taken from 14 countries.
According to The Washington Post, the WHO says that there are a number of possible health risks from consuming these microplastics, but added that more research is needed to clarify the risks.
And yet another Progressive Panic Bomb turns out to be a damp fart.
