Microplastics Info Session at Effingham Public Library

Tiny Pollutants, Big Problems: Uncovering the Impact of Microplastics on Ecosystems and Human Health

Delve into the pervasive issue of microplastics—tiny plastic particles less than 5mm in size—and their widespread presence in our environment, from oceans to soil to the air we breathe.  Join GMCG’s Water Quality Coordinator Jill Emerson to learn about the history of plastics, where it’s being found, the Nile Red technology system GMCG uses to visualize microplastics, and what we can do to help protect ourselves and clean up the earth.
