Under The Microscope: Microplastics

They may be miniscule, but their impact is massive. This week we put a small but pervasive pollutant under the microscope - microplastics. They’re in our oceans, our air, our food, and even inside our bodies. These tiny fragments of plastic are everywhere, yet most of us rarely think about them. In this episode we'll examine how they got here, ask are they harmful and determine what we can do about the problem.
