My Random Pieces 3
I was never much of a drinker. I never really saw much point in it. I'm not exactly a social person, I've had severe anxiety my entire life, and crowds have always made me deeply uncomfortable. Some of that has faded with the years for a lot of reasons, but it was all in full swing when I was younger. On the night this story covers, though? I drank.

The only scars left behind were some more Random Pieces on my psyche. These days, that's good for everyone!

Effects of plastics on human health.
Humans are exposed to a large variety of toxic chemicals and microplastics through inhalation, ingestion, and direct skin contact, all along the plastic lifecycle. According to WWF (World Wide Fund for Nature), an average person could be ingesting approximately 5 grams of plastic every week. While the health impacts of plastics is still a rather new research area, scientific results to-date do indicate plastic causes diseases, disability and premature death at very stage of its life cycle. The toxic chemical additives and pollutants found in plastics threaten human health on a global scale. Scientifically-proven health effects include causing cancer or changing hormone activity (known as endocrine disruption), which can lead to reproductive, growth, and cognitive impairment. Many of the toxic chemical additives have several other known health impacts, persist in the environment, and bioaccumulate in exposed organisms. Research also revealed that microplastics can harm our health, and act as vessels for pathogens to enter our system, increasing the spread of diseases.
