    I thought the majority was from tires. There are other synthetics that use organics for cloths. But yeah the shirt I’m wearing right now is virtually a plastic bag.

      Tires are, indeed, a major source of microplastics, but tires are used outdoors, and you probably spend most of your time indoors.

      Check your lint trap: those are the kind of microplastics you have in your brain.

          And yet, we’re both wearing plastic bags…

          My point is that synthetic fiber is the area we have to focus on to address your primary concern.
