Huge amounts of plastic ends up rivers and oceans every year, harming the environment and potentially also human health. But what if we could pull it out of water with magnets?
There's finally a way to filter the microfibers in your laundry from entering the water supply, and into our oceans with this new washing machine filter.

Microplastics are everywhere now. Any solution to fight them is a good one.
Cigar! Looks like these are on their way!
These filters should be made compulsory – plastic is killing us bit by bit.
Close but no cigar?
