FILE - In this May 23 2019 file photo, Southern Connecticut State University professor Vincent Breslin holds a sample of water that contains possible microplastics at the North Haven Water Treatment Plant on Universal Drive.  The World Health Organization says the levels of microplastics in drinking water don’t appear to be risky, but that more research is needed into their effects on the environment and health.   A WHO report released Wednesday, Aug. 21,  said the minuscule plastics are ubiquitous in the environment and have been found in both tap and bottled drinking water.
