Now do soda bottles.
So like all plastic containers and cans(they are all plastic lined) do this aswell then
From what’s been reported in recent times, drinking any source of water comes with lots of plastic particles. As well as eating any food.
Obviously? The water is literally enrobed in plastic
3 different brand in the US.
Given US’s standing in terms of holding corporations accountable and their poor standards and lower regulations around the sourcing I’m going to assume this isn’t the case for the rest of the world.
They were the only 3 they looked at. It’s not about them being sub par quality, they measured for smaller nano plastics than have been tested before. I would assume all plastic containers do this, with a rate of speed relative to the medium contained within. All drinks with plastic, maybe the carbonated drinks move the plastic particles faster, even. How much of the food we consume is wrapped in plastic, and doing this.

What does that have to do with bottled water?
It’s not even true, Nauru has the highest rate. The US is 11th (granted, after a bunch of micro-states in Polynesia). You may mean highest population

BPA isn’t in water bottles
Poetic justice for people drinking bottled water out of single use plastic.
You know all the sodas in those plastic bottles contain micro plastics too. Also our tap water contains micro plastics so there isn’t really an escape from it.
Don’t drink sodas in plastic. Anyone using single use plastic deserves the consequences.
