Microplastics Are a Threat to the Environment

Almost 400 million tons of plastics are produced each year, a mass projected to more than double by 20 50. Even if all plastic production were mag ly stopped to morrow, existing plastics in land fills and the environment would continue degrading into tiny fragments impossible to collect or clean up. Colemans calls this a plastic time bomb. If you ask me about risks, i am not that frightened to day, but i am a bit concerned about the future, if we do nothing researchers have several theories about how plastic specks might be harmful.
