For every kilometer you drive, your tires shed 1 trillion plastic particles. 78% of microplastics in the ocean are from tires.
What are you suggesting? That I stop peeling out of every parking lot and doing sick doughnuts!?
What I'm saying is that we need to figure out to make tires out of some unholy bamboo/cheese composite.
What if the roads were rubber and the tires were asphalt?
