Default Where does paint all go?

Actually, where do many things go? Rocks become stones, which become
pebbles, which become sand, which becomes microscopic sandy dust and the
inorganic component of soil. How does this differ from the harmful
microscopic grains of degenerated plastic - and, presumably, paint?


I wish Lush would stop putting bits of sparkly plastic in their bath
bombs. They get everywhere when my missus uses them. She doesn't
actually buy them, but some people think they make a nice present.
