    The toxicity of micro plastics is very minor. To get to the point where it is a problem you need to be exposed to it for a very long time.

    I think our asbestos is halogenated organic chemicals like PFAS. They are toxic in every way and we are addicted to their use in food chemistry. Not to eat or anything but to make the packaging look nice.

    Because they are indestructible by any natural way their dose in the water supply is ever rising. The cost of health issues is already in the hundred billions.

    Micro plastics might be a problem for our children when the dosage in clean water gets to extreme levels.


  • I don’t believe I’m underwater civilized life. Think about the main two technical advancements that were crucial to our development: The wheel and fire. Both make living more energy efficient by saving energy and getting more from food.

    But both are impossible in water. The high resistance of water (Vs air) is physically impossible to overcome and hot stuff is impossible to contain without advanced technology.

    Without lungs octopuses wont make it far if you ask me.
