With such a push against single use plastic and mirco plastics etc. Why is glitter left untouched? surely it has to be one of the worse plastic pollutants. Currently getting our Christmas shop ready, and its on everything and gets everywhere!

    The biggest culprits are probably polyester and acrylic fabrics, plus tires… and there isn’t likely to be a will to do anything about those. But yeah, glitter is annoying.

      Glitter is a novelty in every use case, though.

      Polyester is too, but it’s a substantial and noticeable difference and improvement (a milestone even) as a life comfort. Glitter is just nice to look at.
