In a new scientific paper, three physicians report that one switch could cut microplastic intake by about 90% -- from 90,000 to 4,000 particles each year. It may be time to find America’s next top bottle.

Microplastics are everywhere — in the beauty products we wear, the cleaning supplies we use and even in the food we eat. Research suggests that these particles, smaller than a grain of rice, can harm reproductive, digestive and respiratory health, potentially leading to colon and lung cancer.

I'd be dead even sooner if I tried to drink my tap water. Landfill down the street with well water and a water softener to add to the pollutants.

It's my understanding that reverse osmosis filtering wastes more water than it filters and cost a shit ton to use.
