Google search thinks you should use glue to stick together a pizza as its AI is trained on Reddit, where 11 years ago a user called “fucksmith” posted suggesting it was a good idea.
Only two studies, and both are small, but it should worry even the rich. They can’t avoid them. How ironic if humanity’s pollution is a leading factor in the extinction of the species!
#Microplastics found in every human testicle in study. Scientists say discovery may be linked to decades-long decline in sperm counts in men around the world. Sperm counts in men have been falling for decades, with CHEM POLUT such as pesticides implicated by many studies. Microplastics: discovered in human blood, placentas & breast milk, indicating widespread contamination of people’s bodies -shown to cause damage to human cells in the lab. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/article/2024/may/20/microplastics-human-testicles-study-sperm-counts
A dream collaboration between 2 wonderfully evil #corporations, working hand in hand on the future we now live in:
"Is everything of plastic? - Almost!"
Hmm, people making their own nut milks for their health with "nut milk bags" made out of nylon mesh apparently are dosing themselves with microplastics. (bought some cotton ones, instead). #microplastics
Climate change affects the ratio of male to female turtle hatchlings, with the rise in temperature of only one degree resulting in almost no males being hatched!
As well, microplastics play a part here because their presence in the soil can increased the heat absorption from the sun...
The net result, the gradual decline in turtle populations until there are none left...
The 'Plastic Forecast – Weather' combines directly measured microplastic fall under recorded weather conditions with weather forecasts to estimate the daily 'plastic fall' in an easy-to-understand weather report for Ottawa.

Microplastics have been found in human testicles, with researchers saying the discovery might be linked to declining sperm counts in men.
