A good ethical idea for a study that could easily get approved would be to randomly assign people to two groups: one group would be exposed to water that was contaminated with microplastics, and a control group which would get uncontaminated water. People would not know if their water was hazardous or not to minimize bias.

Understand the Problem

The question is proposing an ethical study design involving the exposure of participants to contaminated versus uncontaminated water. It seeks to explore the potential effects of microplastics on health by randomly assigning individuals to different groups while minimizing bias through a lack of knowledge about the water's safety.
