I was also thinking similar, does puttingan RO system for just the drinking water solve this?
Yes most definitely.
Micro plastics are defined as plastic sizes from 5mm down to 1.6 Microns.
A typical consumer grade RO can easily filter down to 0.001 Microns. Which not only removes micro plastics but almost all bacteria and viruses as well.
