Microplastics: A Public Health Concern
Our Wild & Pure product line has been purpose-built to empower users to reduce plastic waste during personal care. Using our compostable dry cotton wipes or organic flannel wipes with a “use-as-you-go” product like our EcoBalance Cleansers reduces plastic container waste and microplastic contamination in waterways from wet wipes.
Researchers are increasingly concerned about the presence of tiny pieces of plastic called microplastics in our oceans and how they might affect both seafood and human health. Additionally, harmful algae blooms pose risks to seafood safety. To address these pressing issues, new Oceans and Human Health Centers have been established to delve into the impacts on both the environment and people. By studying these challenges closely, scientists aim to find solutions to keep our oceans clean and seafood safe for consumption.
One way individuals can contribute to this effort is by opting for plastic-free products, reducing the amount of plastic waste that ends up in our oceans and ultimately mitigating the potential harm to marine life and human health. By making small changes in our daily lives, we can all play a part in preserving the health of our oceans and ourselves.
