- In a new study, scientists measured the amount of micro- and nanoplastics inside a bottle of water.
- The numbers were so high that some of the researchers said they're cutting back on bottled water.
- It's unclear if micro- and nanoplastics pose a threat to human health.
The average liter of bottled water has nearly a quarter million invisible pieces of ever so tiny nanoplastics, detected and categorized for the first time by a microscope using dual lasers.
