Microplastics typically range in size from about 5 millimeters down to the lower micrometer scale, while nanoplastics extend to the smallest particles, with sizes down to 1 nanometer.

Micro- and nanoplastics are small plastic particles that can arise from the breakdown of discarded plastic materials, wear from regular use, or even spills of plastic manufacturing materials such as nurdles.

The background is a landscape showing grass, hills and sky. In the centre is a pile of everyday plastic items including a chair with a foam cushion, a laundry basket, plastic bottles, plastic rubbish bags, plant pots and buckets. Some of the items have clouds of particles coming off them that become stick and ball chemical structures further away from the objects, suggesting the movement of nano- and microplastic particles from these items into the environment.
Out now: our latest volume Microplastics and Nanoplastics in the Environment offers an overview of the processes that are causing the distribution of micro- and nanoplastics in the environment, their overall fate and the impact they are having.

📍Microplastics Linked to Brain Inflammation Pathways in Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Models.
Microplastics may inflame brain barriers linked to Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, but human proof is missing.

Tap water or bottled water – which is better?
Tap water is tested more frequently than bottled water, costs hundreds of times less, and avoids the plastic waste problem.

"It is understandable to think that #microplastics could possibly be dangerous to our health, and we should find out whether they really are. […] But the field is still young, and we don’t yet have rigorous data on the effects of microplastics in the body."
That about sums it up.

This is the worse and most obvious greenwashing i've ever seen. PLASTIC GRASS IS ECO-FRIENDLY COMPARED TO REAL GRASS? WHAT :thonking:
"Artificial grass emerges as a sustainable choice for eco-conscious Canadians"
No it's not! :AAAAAA:
Gotta destroy the soil and add a bunch of microplastics in […]

2/ What we do know: fiber-optic pollution is a new and understudied risk.
Experts disagree on its impact on soils, but there are clear concerns about #microplastics and wildlife. Animals can become entangled in fiber “webs,” sometimes with fatal consequences.

Kleding bevat veel #microplastics. Barbro Melgert (@sciencenewsroom-ug.bsky.social) wil met haar onderzoek meer bewustzijn creëren over de gevolgen hiervan 👚👗
De afgelopen tijd bracht ze in kaart hoeveel microplastics Groningers verspreiden uit hun eigen kleding 👇

Our bodies are loaded with microplastics.
But hey, at least now there's a new technique to track them.
