if liquid that is heated up to 100° f is put in those containers it starts to leech out it starts to pull those microplastics nanoplastics bpas and BPS from the cup Linings
The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
the lining of the paper cup which makes those cups durable when you put hot liquids in there like hot coffee or hot tea well that contains typically unless it says no BPA and no BPS it contains lots of BPA and bps's microplastics nanoplastics and so putting hot liquid in there actually there was an analysis that showed that if liquid that is heated up to 100° f is put in those containers it starts to leech out it starts to pull those microplastics nanoplastics bpas and BPS from the cup Linings
Paper cups from coffee shops (overcharging you for tea) are a massive source of microplastics, perhaps the largest!
We must also not forget about the plastic lining of "paper cups." These are a widely overlooked source of micro/nanoplastics.
so anytime you're putting liquids into a paper cup you are getting microplastics you are getting hormone disrupting chemicals BPA bpe BPS potentially you're getting phalates and you're getting forever chemicals which are p FAS into your drink
The single biggest source of microplastic exposure for humans, I believe, is paper coffee cups that are lined with plastic.
A hot coffee in a plastic-lined paper to-go cup is an avoidable source of BPA, BPS, and phthalates.
Avoid heating plastic, including paper cups that are plastic-lined
