Plastic is very durable, will it make my brain last longer?
Also plasticity of the brain is a crucial function, if it benefits the plasticity that would be great too.

“Will allow” is absolutely irrelevant, if it’s in the environment there is no way to control it individually.
This is not a matter for personal action.
It’s up to environmental scientists to figure out how we can deal with it, and then it’s up to lawmakers to make regulations accordingly.
Of course if you are in the USA you are probably on your own. 🤔
I thought the majority was from tires. There are other synthetics that use organics for cloths. But yeah the shirt I’m wearing right now is virtually a plastic bag.

It, checks notes, makes you stupid. Joking.
Thing is, we could control it if we took it seriously. So really it does come down to how much we should allow. At what point will we take action?

Personal action has to happen if you want the government to step in.
Please post a picture of the tag on the shirt you are wearing right now.
The overwhelming majority of microplastics in your body are polyester fibers, and most of those originally came from textiles.

Tires are, indeed, a major source of microplastics, but tires are used outdoors, and you probably spend most of your time indoors.
Check your lint trap: those are the kind of microplastics you have in your brain.
Like I said. There is non synthetic clothing.
And yet, we’re both wearing plastic bags…
My point is that synthetic fiber is the area we have to focus on to address your primary concern.
I doubt that. It’s already too late. It’s literally everywhere.
There are processes to remove it from the things we consume.
