PLEASE DO NOT EVER DO THIS!
you will be spreading pollution and killing fish!

I wrote to high times and told them that they were stupid but the didn't print the letter! yet.
as well, just using synthetics outdoors would have much more of an effect. IT dosn't have to go right into a river but it will get there all water runs to rivers. but as stinky said much too small a scale to make any difference.

Also, a big problem is all the soap we use to wash with. it also causes an algae boom and does all the same shit.
