Title: Idiotic so called scientists
Post by: STEMO on 24 November 2024, 07:17:47
I was reading an article about the micro plastics that we inhale every day in our homes, from synthetic carpets to foam cushions to clothes, etc. No one is sure of the damage they cause.
Idiotic comment from random investigative scientist ""I don't think you need to go and rip up every piece of plastic in your house," she said. "It's not financially viable.
"But I do think it's of concern. If we are exposed every day for our whole lives and we live to 80, 90 years old, what does that mean?

It means that you have lived till 90, so no harm done, you stupid twot. ;D

These the same scientists who told us we had to wear cheap Chinese masks made from plastic fibres to save ourselves and others from a nasty flu bug?  ???   ::)   :-X

I also read earlier in the week that car tyres are bad for everyone because of the dust that comes off the rubber during use, it's a wonder any of us survive! What a load of claptrap.

Then perhaps you should tell us where the rubber worn off a tyre goes?

I would think it's obvious to anyone where it goes, if it worries anyone simply don't go out  stay indoors & be afraid of the world we live in or simply get on with everyday life as it is
