There was an article a few days back with microplastics working through “untouched by humans” layers of lake silt.
Stay positive, friend.
But what about the counties upstream of you?
I don’t believe that’s how aquifers work.
Maine doesn’t really have anyone “upstream”.
No Washington, D.C. anymore?

I’m pretty sure microplastics have even been detected in rainwater.
At least until the fracking crews come.
