A highlight you might not have expected…
Just a little snippet from @xtrillionfilm, a film documenting 14 women travelling 3,000 miles to witness and confront the unseen impacts of #plasticpollution in our #ocean.
Watch the trailer here: xtrillionfilm.com/trailer

"There’s evidence of humans everywhere. Even when you’re out at sea and the closest humans orbit above in the space station!"
Join us for a screening of X Trillion to witness the journey : xtrillionfilm.com/screenings

Amazing & very valuable work by @YazzRodrgz @AzoMarineLitter and team 🙌
Using Cory's as a #bioindicator for #plasticpollution in the North Atlantic 🌊🗑️🐦
Please read and share widely!

Our much-awaited paper is out in @env_int_journal!! Cory’s shearwater as a key #bioindicator of #plastic #contamination in the North #Atlantic. We studied 1,238 deceased birds over 8 years! Read the paper 👇 doi.org/10.1016/j.envi… @AzoMarineLitter @FRCTAzores @OkeanosUac

📢New paper out! 📢 Our study over 19 sandy beaches in the #Azores shows that grain size and beach orientation play a role in #microplastics (0.1-5mm) concentrations.
This work was led by @Clara_BR97 and @ChrisKPham
Read it open access👇sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

🏔️➡️🌊 Our new research has just been published unravelling microplastics journey in a river
For the first time we compared water, air and sediment environments together within a major river system
👇 As a sneak peek, our findings include..
