Jessica Hodge+FollowNeptune Balls: Nature’s Secret Trash CollectorsEver spotted those weird Neptune balls on the beach? Turns out, they’re not just sea junk—scientists found they’re actually trapping microplastics from the ocean! These tightly packed seagrass balls act like natural filters, pulling plastic out of the water and washing it back onto shore. In the Mediterranean alone, they could be removing up to 900 million plastic bits a year. Who knew nature had its own cleanup crew? Makes you think twice about tossing that plastic bottle! #Science #OceanCleanup #NeptuneBalls21Share
