Toxic Tangents

Conception can require a lot of trying, which can take the fun out of the process for couples and even add to a decreased libido for both partners.

These discarded garments release an estimated 176,500 metric tons of microplastic fibers into the environment annually.The fashion industry's reliance on synthetic materials has skyrocketed, with polyester now used in over 60% of garments. Fast fashion brands are increasingly using cheaper, plastic-based fabrics to produce more clothing at lower costs.
