Japanese scientists found microplastics in cloud water samples on top of two mountains in Japan. Nowhere is safe from plastic pollution.

      Hurr actually it’s normal. The earth has cycles of microplastic abundance and we just happen to live in the peak of one. Duh.

      Not my fault. Nothing that happens is my fault if I don’t have the power to influence it.

      My point being, people tend to say it’s “our” fault when they mean humanity, but it’s not. 99.9999% of humanity have no power.

        Well. There are alternatives. But it’s hard to switch on every thing, because it’s very expensive.

      I have been feeding every piece of plastic I cam get my hands on into adiesel engine-driven cheese grater, 24/7, since 1992. Should I stop?

    At least some pointy haired manager is going to misinterpret that and boast they’ve transitioned to the cloud

    I read that as “The microphones are in the clouds now”. That’d be a whole different type of dystopian, and not very boring!

    Microplastic, though… that sucks.
