You can't get plastic out of your life in a weekend, and you don't need to. Read in this order: first what the evidence says, then the changes that matter most, then everything else.

Know what you are dealing with
What plastic is doing inside us, why recycling was never going to fix it, and who told you it would.
Start in the kitchen
Heat, fat and wear make plastic shed into food and drink. The kitchen is where small changes do the most.
Then the rest of the house
Dust, laundry, the bathroom cabinet and the toy box.

- Do synthetic clothes shed microplastics? Yes. Here's what helpsPolyester, nylon and acrylic shed fibres in the wash, the dryer and on your body. What the studies measure, where the fibres go, and which fixes have evidence behind them.
Replace things as they wear out
Throwing away plastic you already own to buy "eco" versions is still more stuff. When something breaks, replace it with something that lasts.
