They don’t even specify the brands and yet you’re more than happy to spin this into “America bad”. Lol. For all we know it could be Fiji or Evian brand, both of which are imported to the United States.
The headline is like a doomsayer when in reality it is just US based so not relevant to the rest of the world. Even if it is it is a tiny amount of data to extrapolate out to the entire world.
Maybe the America bad narrative you’re bitching about is a result of rampant deregulation and industry lobbying eroding America for the last century or so.
I’m fine with anyone pointing out the myriad problems with the United States, but that doesn’t change the fact that you’re baselessly speculating that this problem only exists in the United States with nothing to back it up other than your preconceptions.
study finds most of the plastic comes from bottle itself, filtration
Does the rest of the world use other types of bottles or filtration techniques? Doubtful. You should at least accept the possibility that many plastics leech harmful chemicals.
I didn’t dispute that it could be the case I said that it shouldn’t be world news that three brands in the US have an issue. It might affect others but it’s a big jump to international concern from three localised cases. If it were one case in three markets it’d be different.
And yes to speak to your comment, other countries do have different systems and regulations.
