Plastic Micro Beads in Our Personal Care

 I was shocked knowing that most of our face & body scrub contain plastic micro beads instead of natural ones. They are washed directly down the drain and into our water systems, where they harm our waterways and the animals that live there. It is one of the most dangerous sources of plastic pollution, because they could be consumed by the animals.
We can choose natural scrub instead, like the inside part of lemon or lime skin, coffee grounds, sugar & salt, etc. You can find many natural recipes from Google.
Here is the article I read about the plastic micro beads http://www.5gyres.org/microbeads/
