Spectacular, sensationalist as a title... but so close to the truth!
It was in the spring of 2022 that I really got the kick in the butt to get more involved in the fight against plastic waste.
I had already made my small contribution via a “plastic neutrality package” but I thought why not promote it as an influencer… One thing led to another and I became the director of business development for Amplivo Canada!
This report and these articles made me react, not to say freak out!
A serious study has shown that we now find microplastics polluting human blood, and even in the placenta of several pregnant women. Ayoye.
We would eat the equivalent of 5 grams of micro plastic per week (the equivalent of a credit card) from animal/fish containers and especially from bottled water which is supposed to be filtered very efficiently!
Blue whales absorb up to 10 million micro plastics per day!
Children are 10 times more exposed than adults. It is predicted that humans will generate at least twice as much plastic waste within 15-20 years. It’s crazy and hard to put things into perspective.

Take the time to listen to this video clip of less than 10 minutes, it strikes the imagination!
