Plastics Invade Bottled Water

Unfortunately we can now add plastic to bottled water to the growing  list of human health and environmental concerns. It seems tiny plastic fibers and fragments aren’t just choking the oceans and mountain tops; they have now infested the world’s drinking water.

According to new research published in the Proceeding of the National Academy of Sciences, scientists discovered that a liter of bottled water can contain nearly a quarter of a million pieces of unknown microscopic plastics less than a micron in size, which was up 10 to 100 times higher than previously believed.

By reusing plastic instead of creating new plastic, we can reduce the number of resources used and the impact of plastic on the environment. However, it's still important to properly dispose of and recycle plastic to minimize its negative impact on the environment. By embracing rPET and other eco-friendly alternatives, we can reduce the impact of plastic waste and create a more sustainable future for future generations..
