#EcoPurge plant-based, biodegradable #plastic when disposed of takes up to two weeks to degrade and release enzymes into the environment that break down existing #microplastics in the surrounding soil and water.

#ICMM-CSIC Madrid’s Institute of Materials Science researchers created magnetic iron-oxide nanoflowers that trap PET #nanoplastics & turn them into tools to remove other water pollutants, supporting circular, advanced water treatment
From plastic that pollutes water to a tool that helps clean it up. The study has been published in the Chemical Engineering Journal

Key takeaway from the TEDx discussion:
• growing health and environmental concerns associated with micro- and #nanoplastics
• #Health risks are increasingly documented
• Public education can accelerate solutions

Human beings are 50% to 75% water.

Capitalism has contaminated 100% of the water on Earth with nanoplastics and PFAs, causing human fertility to plummet—and, almost certainly, the fertility of ALL life on Earth.

So...?

Scientists tested 3 popular bottled water brands for nanoplastics. The results are alarming.

Nanoplastics discovered to dramatically increase greenhouse gas emissions in wetlands, potentially transforming carbon sinks into significant emission sources. New research reveals critical climate change implications of microscopic plastic pollution. #Climate #Nanoplastics

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Pacific_Garbage_Patch

(1)
 Between #Hawaii & #California #GPGP Great Pacific Garbage Patch - 2XTexas - largest accumulation of ocean plastic in the world; bounded by a gyre - spinning circular current in the ocean - pulls trash towards the centre creating a garbage vortex “soup”
1.8 trillion pieces of plastic = 80,000 tonnes.

Micro and #nanoplastics are a great health issue. At the New York event, #allatra presented #evidence of their presence in all #human tissues. This implies long-term systemic #risks that demand solutions. https://allatra.org/press-release/allatra-new-york-hosts-community-event-impact-micro-and-nanoplastics-human-health

Why didn't people today inform enough about such risks as #nanoplastics? At ChangeNOW 2026, #allatra highlighted how #science must guide decisions for our security. https://www.fox44news.com/business/press-releases/ein-presswire/904017313/at-changenow-2026-in-paris-allatra-held-an-expert-workshop-on-the-global-risks-of-nanoplastics/

So Robert F. Kennedy Jr has decided to investigate microplastics and research ways to remove them from the human body.

The human body. Not, apparently, the environment.

Removing microplastics and nanoplastics from the human body but NOT from the environment would be like removing a cup of water from the ocean and declaring the world dry.
