Is this possibly a good thing? If nanoplastics accumulate in plants, that means less of it in the water and air, right?



You could say the exact same thing about dioxin, mercury, arsenic.

It's not when it's in the water that it's a problem. It's when it enters the food chain. Plastic in plants means plastic in ruminants. Does it stop there, or does the plastic degrade and enter the bloodstream?
