👀 If you could see microplastics, you would see them EVERYWHERE.
Microplastics have been found in the 🌬️air we breathe, the 🍏food we eat, and even in 🫁organs and 🩸blood.
The only way to reduce microplastics is to cut plastic production.

THIS COVER IMAGE DEPICTS A HUMAN BRAIN WITH COLORFUL MICROPLASTIC PARTICLES SCATTERED ACROSS ITS SURFACE, JUXTAPOSED WITH A WHITE PLASTIC SPOON AS A VISUAL REPRESENTATION. RESEARCH
HAS REVEALED THAT THE HUMAN BRAIN CONTAINS APPROXIMATELY "A SPOON'S WORTH" OF MICROPLASTICS AND #NANOPLASTICS, WITH PARTICULARLY HIGH CONCENTRATIONS (3-5 TIMES GREATER) IN INDIVIDUALS WITH DEMENTIA.
