From the BBC article you link to: "We know that microplastics have been in the environment for decades, but we still don't know what an environmentally acceptable level of microplastic contamination might look like - in any environment. (...) Microplastic pollution is a fact of modern life - it is here to stay"
And: ""Natural fibres such as wool and cotton have been present in our rivers and seas in significant concentrations since the Industrial Revolution."
In other words, microscopic pieces of fibre result regardless of whether clothes are made from natural fibres or polyester. The latter stick around for longer, but so long as we use machines to wash clothes, microfibres will enter our drinking water and out bodies. There is nothing in the article which says polyester is toxic.
