I hope we'll crack down on heavy SUVs vs normal cars before electric vs ICE.

Tires are somewhere near the top for distributing microplastics and heavier cars cause more tire wear, so yea we should get on that. I live next to a main road and we run filters in our house and have to wash the surfaces at least once a week to get off the oil and rubber dust. You can't just dust that stuff either, you have to wash it with soap. I almost regret buying this place, but where else would I have bought in this economy!?
most ppl live next to a road so i gather yours is a pretty hefty one or you overlooked other sources of polution
Yea it’s the main road for the whole town and my house is ten feet from it.
