@CelloMomOnCars since PVA is soluble in water, I don’t think this is the same issue as microplastics (insoluble small grains with similar density as water so they float or stay suspended, and while chemically not terribly dangerous the fact that those are everywhere should indeed raise some concerns, warrant further research and precautionary emission reduction wherever necessary)
@CelloMomOnCars the biggest issue with pods isn’t the PVA wrapper, but the fact that those make you use too much detergent (you can’t fraction it to fit your specific needs) which is wasteful plus present an unnecessary loading on the wastewater treatment plant,
and secondly, pods are significantly more expensive per load even if you’d use the same amount
