#Microplastics found in human lung tissue (11 out of 13) for the first time, thus confirming airborne exposure. Half of particles were fibers, 43% were fragments, and 8% film. STOTEN sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

#GoodNewsLK Mediterranean Shipping Co (MSC), largest container line in the world, has rerouted its ships passing near the coast of #SriLanka to avoid potential collisions with endangered #BlueWhales. This is what Dr. Asha de Vos has advocated for yrs! #shipping businessinsider.com/worlds-largest…

The horrific scale of our microplastic pollution. Among the biodiversity of my plankton sample today is our ever present plastic litter, ready to enter the marine food chain. ZEISS Microscopy

I'm happy to share our first publication on Airborne Microplastics in both indoor and outdoor environments in Sri Lanka. #microplastics lnkd.in/giciNRCw

Happy to share our latest publication, which shows a remarkably consistent relationship between the size and number of #microplastics in different environmental compartments. lnkd.in/gp9T7qRP

Have a read on our news article featured in Griffith News on airborne #microplastics lnkd.in/gXNQCWty

🔴📢BREAKING The most gravitational document for #INC2 #plasticstreaty is out 🤯13000 chemicals used in plastics as monomers, additives, processing aids and NIAS ➡️3200 are identified as chemicals of potential concern based on existing hazard types READ:basel.int/Implementation…

Congrats Prof Fred Leusch whose work on #plastics appeared in 'Washing machine filters a 'no-brainer' to cut pollution' syndicated in >70 media outlets' Fred will be on ABC Radio Sydney's Breakfast program, 7:20AM tomorrow Griffith University Griffith Science & Environment aap.com.au/news/washing-m…

Our new collaborative study led by Iskander lab Syeed Md Iskander, PhD, PE, BCEE identifies plastic chopping boards as a substantial source of #microplastics in human food, which requires careful attention.🥕 A person could be exposed to 14.5 to 71.9 million polyethylene microplastics annually!

Happy to share our latest publication on microplastics in Australian indoor air #microplastics lnkd.in/gWr9vbDe

19 yrs after our 1st publication⁩ on microplastic science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… it is heartwarming to see such unanimous global support at #INC2, Paris to minimise microplastic pollution 🇮🇩 🇬🇧🇪🇨 🇵🇦 🇺🇾 🇮🇳 🇱🇰 🇷🇺🇦🇺 🇵🇭 🇲🇾 🇳🇿 🇦🇷 🇨🇳 🇳🇴 🇲🇽 🇹🇭 🇨🇭 🇯🇵 🇧🇷 🇨🇱 🇵🇪 🇺🇬 🇨🇦 🇨🇴 🇪🇺 🇲🇨etc..Thank you!

“#Microplastics were detected in all samples, including outdoor air... but results showed the childcare centre was the worst. The office & school had approximately 5-times outdoor concentrations, while the homes & restaurant were 2.5-4.5 times outdoor levels.” - Ms Kushani Perera

Turn any paper into audio and listen on your phone! Listen while walking, making dinner, or exercising. It's easy to fit your learning into your daily routine!
