Microplastics found in 93% of bottled water tested...
This is a 2018 article, just in case it isn't evident for anyone. The fact remains, though, and it is probably worse a year after.

Larger pieces of plastic in the environment break down into smaller and smaller pieces. If we outlawed plastic today, and quit making it, the number of microplastic particles would continue to increase in the environment for a very long time.
