They are not all equal, and now you can see the difference. HOW IT WORKS - Scan with your camera, a barcode, or a photo - We read the packaging: material, condition, and how you use it - You get a 0 to 100 exposure score (lower is better) and one clear next step - Every score links to the peer-reviewed studies it is based on SCAN AND UNDERSTAND - Scan food, drinks, cosmetics, and containers by camera, barcode, or photo - Ingredient checker: paste any ingredient list or cosmetic label to flag hidden plastics and polymers - Risk checker: estimate exposure for any material, including PET, HDPE, polystyrene, and glass - Shopping Mode: scan a whole cart and see its combined plastic load before you buy - Real citations on every score (ACS, PNAS, ScienceDirect, PMC) CUT IT DOWN - Lower-plastic swaps, free of BPA and phthalates, matched to what you scanned - Build a watchlist of what to avoid, from BPA and PFAS to phthalates and other additives - Save swaps or create your own - Avoidance guides: water filters for microplastics, glass water bottles, non-toxic cookware, plastic-free food storage, safer baby bottles, and more TRACK AND BUILD HABITS - Your Plastic Passport tracks exposure and progress over time - MicroQuests and weekly plans turn good intentions into small, doable steps - Room-by-room audits for your kitchen, bathroom, and beyond - A clean weekly report of where your exposure is trending - Streaks, stamps, and friendly challenges with friends DISCOVER - Find lower-plastic spots near you, including water refill stations, zero-waste stores, and farmers markets - Browse lab-tested products and their measured chemical levels - See what everyone is checking with Trending - Ask the Plastic Coach anything about microplastics, BPA, PFAS, or safer swaps THE SCIENCE The scoring model draws on peer-reviewed research, including: - Microwaving some containers can release up to 4.22 million microplastic and 2.11 billion nanoplastic particles per square centimeter in 3 minutes (Environmental Science and Technology, 2023) - One liter of bottled water holds about 240,000 plastic particles, roughly 90% of them nanoplastics (PNAS, 2024) - Repeatedly opening and closing a bottle can nearly double the microplastics in it (ACS ES&T Water, 2020) Every scan shows the specific studies used.
