It feels like every few weeks i see an article about microplastics being in the human body. As i understand plastics are inert so why do we expect them to be any more harmful than normal dust?

The biggest source of microplastics is tire dust and synthetic fabrics. It’s unavoidable. Tire dust is everywhere in the modern world, and we literally wear plastic clothes, walk on plastic carpets, sleep on plastic bed sheets, etc.
