As synthetic microfibers infiltrate food, water and air, how can we prevent future release?


Plastic is no longer just infiltrating the ecosystem and polluting rivers and oceans, but is now known to be finding its way into food and air via clothes. While the danger of these microfibers is yet to be determined, the need to reduce the presence of the pollution is crucial to help the environment. Various studies are finding that new materials such as biodegradable fabrics may be a solution.
