Does brushing your teeth with a toothbrush made with plastic bristles result in the ingestion of nanoplastics?

According to Darwin:

Future generations may be excreting body waste in naturally-packaged plastic tubes as our systems adapt.

Fish may incorporate plastic into their scale chemistry.

Digestive systems will find away to utilize this energy source.

Tube worms already use chemical energy rather than sunlight.

Sea creatures will begin building structures with Legos.

Shellfish and coral will become the foundations.

Octopuses will probably be the leaders in this area,porpoises will be consultants and quality control experts.`

Soon the structures will exceed the depth of the coral reefs and move onto land,and the amphibians will evolve again.

All creatures will have blue blood (hemocyanin) like horseshoe crabs,immune to most all diseases.

Man may have been a stepping stone for nature to create plastic in order to develop more advanced life forms.

We may have served our purpose already and it is time to exit the stage.

Out of all the species that have ever existed on this planet,the ones that have survived until today are only 1% of the total.

One day we will become a sediment layer,so enjoy it while you can.

Make every day count.

Have fun.

Play hard.

Laugh a lot.

Make others laugh.

Don't worry be happy!
