Kevin Rodriguez+FollowPlastics: The Sneaky Superbug ProblemEver thought your plastic water bottle could be fueling the next superbug? Scientists just dropped a bombshell: plastics aren’t just polluting the planet—they’re helping germs become drug-resistant! From production to disposal, plastics can spread resistant bacteria everywhere, and the pandemic’s plastic PPE made it worse. With AMR predicted to be the top killer by 2050, it’s time to rethink single-use plastics. Would you ditch disposables to help stop superbugs? #Health #BodyHealth #PlasticCrisis11Share
Zachary Gutierrez+FollowTiny Plastics, Huge Problem: Ocean MysteryScientists just found a whole new level of plastic pollution in the ocean—nanoplastics, which are even smaller than microplastics. They discovered 27 million tons of these tiny particles floating in the North Atlantic alone! Even weirder, one common plastic (PE) is missing, and no one knows where it’s going. Experts say these particles could be way more dangerous than we thought, getting into every ecosystem and even our bodies. Are we doing enough to stop this? #Science #OceanPollution #PlasticCrisis20Share
