      Those reusable grocery bags made from recycled plastic? Disintegrates into dust eventually. And in your household to while it does so.

      Use either natural fiber or nylon(more durable and by default, PFAS free).

        I think hemp would be the best material for clothes, but in most places it’s still an illegal plant.
