@gorkette @Marsupial I’m pretty sure that isn’t the call to action which will help reduce micro plastic in our water.
A sample size of 38 is just too small to be taken seriously.
Are micro plastics in our water a problem? Yes. The title is totally misleading. It cannot be among the world’s most polluted if you have only tested 38 lakes out of millions.
