Once it reaches the water, plastic doesn’t disappear — it breaks into microplastics that fish eat, that we eat, and that never fully go away. The good news is that most of it is traceable to everyday land-based habits, which means everyday swaps genuinely move the needle. Natural fibers and refillables keep the worst offenders out of the water entirely.
