😱 THIS IS WHY YOUR CLOTHES MIGHT BE MAKING YOU SICK

Scientists made men wear different underwear for a study. The results were shocking:
Men wearing POLYESTER had their hormones crash so badly, their s***m count dropped by 50%.
When they switched to COTTON? Everything went back to normal.
But here’s what’s scarier: If polyester can mess with reproductive hormones that badly, what’s it doing to the hormones that control your blood sugar? 🤔
The Truth About Your Laundry:
• Every wash releases 496,030 microfibers
• You’re eating 52,000 plastic particles a year
• They’re now finding microplastics in human BLOOD
• These plastics carry chemicals linked to diabetes
That workout gear you love? Those stretchy leggings? That moisture-wicking shirt?
They’re all releasing hormone-disrupting chemicals every. single. wash. 😰
THE GOOD NEWS: You can stop 98% of these toxic fibers from entering your water RIGHT NOW.
We’ve helped 520,000 families protect their health with PlanetCare filters. Takes 10 minutes to install. Works on any washing machine.

🎸Absolutely have to share this with you – the loveliest review of our filter, coming from 🎶 The Beatles Story museum in Liverpool. Here’s what they had to say: 👇

"At The Beatles Story, we are proud to share our positive experience with PlanetCare following our recent purchase of a washing machine filter for our facilities. As a visitor attraction welcoming over 300K guests each year, we take our environmental responsibilities seriously and strive to ensure that sustainability is at the heart of our operations.
The filter provides a practical and effective way of preventing microfibres from entering our waterways, helping us to "Come Together" in protecting the planet for future generations. We particularly appreciate PlanetCare’s circular approach, offering a cartridge return system that aligns perfectly with our own commitment to responsible practices. Much like the message behind “All You Need Is Love,” their work demonstrates that small, collective actions can create real change.
PlanetCare is helping us play our part, reminding us that the earth is something we can all “get by with a little help” to protect. We highly recommend PlanetCare to other organisations seeking reliable, innovative, and environmentally conscious solutions."

What is there to add?

Absolutely nothing, except a big THANK YOU to all our friends 🎶 and a heartfelt gratitude to all our supporters.💚

“You cannot get through a single day without having an impact on the world around you. What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make.” Jane Goodall. So much more than a primatologist and the legendary animal rights advocate.

She was pure love, compassion and empathy. For nature, for all living beings. Her moral compass will be missed and the world without her will not be the same any more.

Thank you for all your wisdom and your precious legacy. We promise... we will bother!

“We have the choice to use the gift of our life to make the world a better place--or not to bother.”

Well,... sure. There’s always that possibility. To have your blood filtered. 😳😵‍💫 Maybe not everyone can afford the price, but still - the option is available. We’d imagine there are still sufficient amounts of microplastics stored in Mr. Bloom’s brain, testicles, lungs,... but he did have some of it eliminated from his blood.

May we instead suggest to filter your laundry, the shed synthetic microfibres, at their source, at the washing machine, before they enter our waterways, our food chain and our bodies💚💙? 35% of microplastics in the oceans come from textiles, those being the largest single source of ocean microplastics worldwide! The solution really is simple. Start with a microfibre filter at your washing machine.😌

Did you know that😔? Our microfiber filters help.

Dear friend.
 
I have a confession to make: I'm not the biggest fan of Valentine's Day. The commercialism and clichés just don't resonate with me. Not to mention all that single use plastic wrapping 🤦‍♂️
 
However, there's one thing I can't let pass by without expressing – my heartfelt appreciation for you.
 
Your commitment to using our microfiber filter is making a real difference in our fight to save the planet. Your actions are helping to reduce microplastic pollution and protect our precious waterways. For that, I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart.
 
So, while I may not be celebrating Valentine's Day in the traditional sense, I am celebrating you and the positive impact you're making. Together, we're creating a cleaner, greener world.
 
With gratitude and love,

We hate to be the bearer of bad news, but ...

In a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine, researchers looked at how microplastics and nanoplastics in our blood vessels can influence our cardiovascular health. And the results are not very optimistic.

Microplastics may actually increase your chance for a heart attack or other cardiovascular problems. Read more about it here:

This one goes to the "I can't believe it's true" section ...

Did you know that animals that were collected from the ocean back in the 1970s contain microplastics?

Check the video by Simon Dures:

Did you know that the National Museum of Scotlan holds an extensive collection of organisms, you could call it a library of biodiversity (the collection includes 4 million marine invertebraes 🤯), some dating back decades. And what's even more surprising: specimens from the seventies already conta...

Our team members making sure that one of our commercial microfibre filters makes it safely to its final destination😍. We are immensely proud of our partnership with Sea Shepherd - this filter was shipped yesterday and will be installed in one of their vessels. The organisation that defends, conserves and protects the world’s ocean has been using our domestic filters for a while already, but this is the first time one of the vessels in their fleet will use our commercial filter. Grateful and happy!
To a better and healthier planet. Thank you!

This is a time to look back at the year that is finishing - what we have done, where we succeeded, and where we failed, and to make plans and wishes for the New Year.

It is a time to renew our goodwill towards the world, which is so easy to lose as we hurry through our lives. It is also a time to remember and give thanks to the people and nature surrounding us, which have contributed to our successes and dreams.

At PlanetCare we have much to be thankful for.

Through the support of so many good-willed people who decided to actively reduce their microplastic footprint, we were able to launch a brand-new microfiber filter that sets new standards. Starting production of the first product that we fully produce in-house was an important milestone for us! To make it a reality, it required a lot of help, cooperation, and patience from our team and suppliers.

During 2024, we started installing our self-cleaning commercial filters, another milestone we are proud of. Support, as well as patience from businesses pushing us ahead, is greatly appreciated.

We thank each and every person asking us difficult questions for helping us stay focused and find solutions. And we thank you for all the supportive comments received! They give the team a constant reminder of why it is important to forge ahead.

For 2025, we hope that our legislators find the courage and will to be ambitious and plan for a world with fewer microfibers littering it. We will do our best to support them, the producers, and the public with better and more comfortable filters. We are looking forward to 2025, which will bring the market entry of the first filter from the collaboration between PlanetCare and a washing machine producer.

I personally give thanks to the wonderful team we have. Without the team, there would be nothing!

Finally, we wish to spread goodwill to all in the form of a healthier environment polluted with fewer plastic fibers. And may all your wishes come true!

Mojca Zupan, Founder and CEO
