CelloMomOnCars OP , 4 months ago I will now stop using laundry pods. Even while acknowledging that their contribution to microplastics is small. The major contributors to microplastics in the oceans: Synthetic textiles (They make me sweat unpleasantly, so I stay away from those, too), Car tires (why I bike: skinny tires, a lot less wear!) City dust (Guessing that includes the two above, plus house paint and such). From: https://www.statista.com/chart/17957/where-the-oceans-microplastics-come-from/
