Applicable ways to reduce plastic exposure in work...]
[
prefer glass or stainless steel containers!]
Plastic containers that we use while preparing and storing food, can emit microscopic particles especially when exposed to heat. These parts can be taken into the body, mixed with food and drinks. Therefore, glass or stainless steel containers should be preferred. Heat resistant glass products should be used instead of using plastic container in the microwave. In water consumption, filtered systems should be preferred; carbon block filters or reverse omosis systems can be greatly filtered. It is also an effective method to filter after boiling.

Synthetic fabrics ( such as polyester, nylon) as the microfiber is that they eat microplastics. These fibers are not only in the water, but also mixed into the air and home dust. Cotton reduces this risk to prefer clothes made from natural fibers such as wool, flax, bamboo. If synthetic clothes are inevitable, it is useful to use special bag or filtered machines that catch microfiber, wash with more rare and cold water. Drying clothes in natural environment reduces the microplasm of drying machines.

I know what it takes about!]
Microplastics are directly included in the content in many cosmetics and personal care products. Contents such as “polyethylene” or “polypropylene” especially in products such as peeling, polisher products, toothpastes represent these microplastics. Reading content lists are much safer for your nature and health to choose products that contain natural alternatives such as sugar, salt or coffee.
