Do you....drive a car? Rubber rubbing off from your tires onto the road is one of the main contribution (2nd highest) to ocean micro plastics as your tires are filled with them suspended in the tire...

Aw man there goes my all polyester 70's wardrobe!

[-] UsernameHere@lemy.lol 5 points 1 week ago

That wardrobe will live on forever in our hearts and minds… in the form of microplastics.

Tires are made of rubber though.

[-] Thoath@leminal.space 0 points 2 weeks ago

Tires have suspended micro plastics in the rubber, and small particles of rubber are still under the 'micro plastics' umbrella as a synthetic plastic polymer, glad you have such an understanding

Shouldn't those be micro rubbers and I'm not talking about my condoms.

[-] Thoath@leminal.space 0 points 2 weeks ago

Even if you personally decide 'auhh my micro rubbers' a tire isn't a solid block of rubber, it has structural enforcement that is plastic, and both of these polymers, when under 5mm, is micro plastic by definition

5mm what's that like ten inches?

[-] Shapillon@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

About a fifth ig?

I'm eyeballing it out.
