wilsonjames+FollowMicroplastics Messing With Our Minds?!Just found out we eat about 250g of microplastics a year (that’s a whole dinner plate!) and it’s not just gross—it’s messing with our brains. Scientists say these tiny plastic bits can sneak past our brain’s defenses, spark inflammation, mess up our brain cells’ energy, and even up the risk for Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Time to rethink all that plastic in our lives! #Health #BodyHealth #microplastics00Share
Robin Long+FollowPlastic Invaders in Our National Parks?!You’d never guess, but even the most picture-perfect national parks are crawling with microplastics! A new TrashBlitz report found that over half the trash in these parks is tiny plastic bits, including those sneaky 'nurdles' from big petrochemical companies. These plastics are everywhere—trails, rivers, even remote spots. They’re not just ugly; they’re a real threat to animals, water, and even us. Wild, right? Time to rethink that single-use bottle on your next hike! #News #microplastics #nationalparks00Share
