Tire rubber accounts for about 25-30% of all microplastic emmission on land. But we are talking about Q-tips and putting filters into washing machines, because the car lobby successfully stirred the discourse away from themselves.
@tryptaminev and that no matter what motor they carry 😬 #microplastic #tires https://phys.org/news/2022-11-unraveling-secrets-microplastics.html @mondoman712
It’s probably even worse with EV-s since they’re heavier than ICE cars of similar class/size.
@Shurimal urgh yes that definitely sounds worse :/ @mondoman712 @tryptaminev
@tryptaminev @mondoman712 How very true, not to mention the particulate air pollution which comes from vehicle tyres
