Microplastics are found in significantly larger numbers within the bodies of anyone living today than in people who died hundreds of years ago. Living without microplastics is lethal.

More people die by swimming in water than by swimming in gas.
Ban water!

That's definitely false. Only a small percentage of people globally die while in water, while nearly everybody dies in a gas.

Plus, you are ignoring the addictive properties of gasses. While withdrawal symptoms of moderately addictive water take days to get serious, the withdrawal symptoms of much more addictive gases occur within only a couple minutes.

The dangers of di hydrogen monoxide are well documented.

I'm not sure if that's gaseous matter or gasoline, but I imagine both are true

As a professional fartographer, is that your official fartographical ANALysis?

Peer reviews of my research accuse my paper of circling the subject area. Once grant funding was removed and I was pushed out, I had to shit or get off the pot, so you may find my data sets complete even though I wasn't able to fully finish identifying correlation/causation. It's not exactly inconclusive; it's more that the overall analysis was open but whole.

So, the research does support my claims, even though some have accused me of being full of crap.
