D'où viennent-ils:
- The primary microplastics :
Directly produced as microparticles.
0.95 Million tonnes are produced every year such as :
270 000 tonnes come from the erosion of tyres
230 000 come from plastic pellets
190 000 tonnes proviennent du textile suite au lavage à la machine à laver de vêtements synthétiques.

- The Secondary microplastics :
Produced by fragmentation of macroplastics.
La décomposition des déchets plastiques marins en fait partie.
This is where we can act ... before macroplastics disagregate into microplastics !
