Crazy how people will refuse to drink from plastic water bottles from fear of BPAs and microplastics but will happily eat the dead flesh of an animal that gorged on plastics for years. Our risk analysis is as broken as our morality.
this got me thinking as well.
I think the whole garbage feeding law (at least in US, where the video originated) is made to control disease transmission – but not microplastics, which is a relatively new discovery.
Still up to the consumer to protect themselves while there’s no regulation tackling this.
