Are you worried about microplastics? - Lemmy.World

I’ve been more and more conscious about microplastics. I was not aware that the laundry and dishwasher pods are just plastic which then goes into the water system. What can be done to prevent microplastics?

Why worry about something I can’t control. The sack of meat I call a body will only take so much abuse from the world’s oligarchs before it gives up…their bodies too.

I can rearrange me life to the most extremes, but my neighbour will still burn garbage and consume twice as much as I ever will within a week. There’s no stopping this until companies are held accountable and the rich are jailed, which we all know will never happen.

Spoken like a true person under 40
I don’t get it. Not worrying about things you can’t control is an “under 40” take? It seems like a sane human take regardless of age.
No, thinking that the missing ingredient to solve microplastics is to punish powerful people, is the under 40 part.

So being a capitalist bootlicker is a monolithic feature of the over-40 crowd?

Ok boomer.

Just because you’ve learned some new words doesn’t necessarily mean you can string them into a cogent sentence… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I’ll take that as a yes, boomer.

Or should I say bootlicker?

Oh, have you got a life of regrets to come.

Enjoy!

Aaaaand… this changes the fact that you’re a bootlicker how, exactly?
