It seems like microfiber materials should be a major contributor to micro plastics, especially with all the laundering of the microfiber cloths and clothes.

      Because people have been told a bunch about this vague idea of microplastics, but not that a bunch of shit they buy, like microfiber, are major contributors to that.

      I thinks it’s less distinction and more awareness.

        On the contrary, when I think “microplastics”, those fucking micrrofibre chamoises are what I’m thinking of.
