(第33-35題)
Peggy:This is cool! It’s a face wash with microbeads. I’ve used it for weeks, and it makes my face much cleaner than before.
Karen:Congratulations. You finally found the perfect face wash, but you have to stop using it and never buy it again.
Peggy:Why not?
Karen:These microbeads are made of plastic and are very tiny, smaller than 0.5 mm in diameter. That’s why they help wash your face.
Peggy:And water take both the beads and the dirt away, which is what I’m hoping for. What’s the problem?
Karen:One of the problem is that these microbeads are good at absorbing toxic sustances such as heavy metals, and fish will eat them as their food. A lot of microbeads and bad substances will stay in the fish and be eaten by humans. People will have higher chance to have health problems, such as cancer.
Peggy:It’s pretty scary to know how these tiny beads can pollute the environment, animals and human. You’ve talked me out of using it anymore. I won’t use the face wash, but now, you have to help me look for another one.
Karen:No big deal. Try some face wash that has sea salt, coconut shells, almond fragments or coffee beans. They all have similar effects and are better for the environment.
