Okay, we get it. The Earth is made of microplastics now. It's time to just accept we live on an Earth made of plastic and all become Barbie Girls to make it fantastic.
And everyone can also brush our hair and undress us everywhere
Raindrops can't form without larger particles like dust. I shudder to think how microplastics are replacing these particles
If they're in the clouds then they're in the air we breathe
I don't get what the big deal is. I'm full of microplastics, but microplastics are made of dinosaurs, so that makes me part dinosaur and that's badass.

Algae actually.
What makes it vegan, I guess.
Guess I'm not traveling to Japan then

"Each liter of cloud water contained between 6.7 to 13.9 pieces of the plastics."
Anyone know what a "piece" is?
It’s a bit
Some, as a snack
Probably a piece of microplastic. Not trying to be facetious. Microplastic already refers to a size of a piece of plastic as opposed to the material in general. Sort of like how gold is a material and a gold nugget is a piece of gold. As for how big this is what Wikipedia says the NOAA says.
Microplastics are fragments of any type of plastic less than 5 mm (0.20 in) in length, according to the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)[1][2] and the European Chemicals Agency.[3] They cause pollution by entering natural ecosystems from a variety of sources, including cosmetics, clothing, food packaging, and industrial processes.[4]
If you read below the fold in the article you get:
The team identified nine different types of polymers and one type of rubber in the airborne microplastics -- ranging in size from 7.1 to 94.6 micrometers.
So would that mean it is assumed that microplastics are spherical and the length refers to the diameter? So that we could calculate percent concentration by using the volumes.

Hi Barbie!
Hi Barbie!
Come on Barbie, let's go party!
Every time I read one of these stories I imagine my capillaries clogging up with PVA glue
Most normal Morrowind fan
Moon sugar is just plastic
