When the evidence changes, you hear it

Most newsletters in this category exist to remind you to be worried. This one exists because scores move — a study lands, a formulation changes, or we get something wrong and correct it in public. If you acted on a number here, you should be told when it changes.

The MicroPlastics email

One address, no other details

That is the whole form. We do not ask for a name because we would never use it, and every extra field costs signups.

Roughly monthly. No selling, no sharing, unsubscribe in one click. Privacy

What actually arrives

Score changes

When a product among the 132 we have scored moves band, or its evidence grade improves because someone finally measured it.

Corrections

Published against ourselves, with a date and a description of what was wrong. We already do this on /methodology. This is the same thing, pushed rather than pulled.

Challenged studies

24 sources underpin the database. When one is disputed or replaced, everything resting on it moves — and you should not have to re-read the site to find out.

What we will not do

  • No selling or sharing your address. Not to partners, not to advertisers, not to anyone.

  • No manufactured urgency. If nothing changed, nothing is sent. A quiet month is a quiet month.

  • No paid placements in the email. Same policy as the scores themselves. Where a link earns a commission we say so inline.

  • One-click unsubscribe. A link in every email, no login, no "are you sure", no retention flow.
