    Yes. Microplastics leech into your water when you reuse a single-use plastic bottle.

      Microplastics are in the air we breathe and the water you’re filling your re-usable bottle with likely comes to the tap via plastic pipes.

      Moralizing people for re-using single-use plastic bottles is just virtue signaling. It’s basically impossible to avoid microplastics and if one cares about their health there are things you can do that have orders of magnitude greater impact on it such as staying lean and excercising.

        1. Avoidance isn’t my goal. Reduction is. Might be the same for the other commentor

        2. Drink out of what you want, but I like being able to scrub my reusable bottle.

        Dogs piss on dirt, so if you walk on the grass, you may as well just be drinking dog piss. Don’t demonize people for that.

        Thanks, dope ass logic. Let’s just ingest more plastic!!!
