56 companies are responsible for 50% of branded plastic waste globally.

There are microplastics in our water, food and bodies, harming all of us — and now we know the companies behind it.

They should be held civilly and legally responsible for the damage they've done.

Rhonda is switching from a Berkey to a reverse osmosis water filtration system

One reason why:

Reverse osmosis filters out microplastics (and possibly nanoplastics)

As a downside, it also filter out trace elements (but she gets a lot of those in her multivitamin)

Conventional Pork has Microplastics in it. I wonder why...

Reasons to Always Avoid Drinking From Paper/Plastic Cups.

Paper and plastic cups harbor a range of toxic elements like fluoride, lead, cadmium, microplastics, and other toxins that seep into the beverage you consume.

Sifting sand for microplastics and seashells.

👉 Microplastics are already irreversibly contaminating our air, water, food and organs. If this contamination becomes lethal to humans, nothing will be able to protect us. Then we'll realise too late that we've been so stupid!

🫵 It is up to producers to scientifically prove that #microplastics and #nanoplastics have NO effect on human #health . ☝️ It is NOT up to consumers or governments to fund research into the toxicity of plastics. 👉 Until something is proven, the production of plastics must be

This is what I'm picturing when people say microplastics

Dr Masoumeh Zargar, Edith Cowan University (ECU)'s engineering lecturer has developed high-tech membrane filters to remove dangerous #microplastics from aquatic and wastewater treatment systems.

This new technology is set to change how water is treated worldwide. #UniversitiesMatter

EU ensures #waterquality & quantity by standardising microplastics measurement and safe wastewater reuse for agriculture.

Is it not time to prioritise the #sustainability of our most vital natural assets?

I made a very '90s style remix of Microplastics

EBar units now handle biodegradable cups from eGreen, which break up naturally over time. So no nasty microplastics in our environment. This builds on the green benefits of EBar like elimination of bottle/can waste and our extremely efficient use of reusable kegs.

Let's be clear, #microplastics and #nanoplastics must be part of the #PlasticsTreaty scope. Let's not let low-ambition countries use weak excuses to exclude it. The treaty must protect human #health . #BreakFreeFromPlastic Learn more 👉pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/en…
