Plastic Pipes, Microplastics & Impacts on Human Health – Safe Piping Matters Research identifies plastic pipes as a significant source of microplastics & nanoplastics in potable water systems. Both PVC and PE pipes crack and peel “relatively quickly” as they age, releasing…

The @usenvironment.bsky.social added #microplastics to its Contaminant Candidate List citing "the need to better understand all potential sources of #plasticpollution that contribute to the formation of microplastics in sources of #drinkingwater." This should include #plasticpipes.

New research shows a "Plastic Cascade": microplastics in fish have risen steadily since 2010. River discharge is the #1 human factor driving waste to our coasts. New AI models map these risks with 73% accuracy.🌊🐟 https://tinyurl.com/akvtbcbr #PlasticPollution #OceanHealth

A Plastic Cascade moves waste from rivers (the top human factor) to coastal hotspots. New research uses AI to map these risks with 73% accuracy, helping us prioritize cleanup efforts. Let’s protect our seas!🌊🐟

Shifting to a Circular Economy...

• Could reduce virgin plastic production by 55%
• Save governments US$70 billion by 2040
• Reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 25%
• Create 700,000 additional jobs

LINEAR ECONOMY:
Take (Natural Resources) » Make (Production/Manufacturing) » Use (Consumers) » Waste (Pollutants/Landfill)

CIRCULAR ECONOMY:
Take » Make » 
Use » Repair / Refurbish / Parts Harvesting
Collection » Recycle / Materials Recycling
» Residual Waste

Just 9% of all #plastic has been recycled. #PlasticPollution is altering natural habitats and processes, reducing our ecosystems’ ability to adapt to #ClimateChange, and directly affecting millions of people’s health and livelihoods.

A #CircularEconomy for a sustainable future. 👍️

Fireworks - Cheap Thrills with Toxic Consequences Fireworks are a cheap thrill that create unnecessary toxic air pollution that can cause serious health and environmental risks.

Apple celebrates 50 years with an Apple Park fireworks display.

Sadly a company that prides itself being environmentally conscious used fireworks as part of its 50 year anniversary. Exceedingly ignorant
