“Good point, not seen that about micro-fibres. But makes sense, when you see, say, all the particles that come out of carpets. Must be similar for clothes.
As for charity, not bothered, as long as it doesn't go abroad, especially India!”

“Apparently, the biggest threat of all emerging is actually coming from washing clothes. The micro fibres are being washed out of our man made garments into rivers and entering the food chain by being ingested by progressively larger animals who feed on each other. It is a problem which is damaging creatures in the rivers and ocean's on a celular level.

What charity would you want this money to go towards anyway ?”

“Des, a bit unfair.
Given that bags apparently are the biggest litter threat, I have only just noticed more in trees, hedges, against fences etc.
Also, over w/e read that bags are the biggest threat to whales.
Best way sureley is to charge say 25p, with the profit, ie, 24.9p going to charity.”

“Slow day at the CBC then ?”
