Can seaweed be the solution to fight plastic pollution? 🌿 In this conversation with Julia Marsh, we learn how seaweed is emerging as a powerful, renewable alternative to traditional petroleum-based plastics, and how her company Sway applies it to the shipping industry. https://t.co/65ibnxjnil #Seaweed #PlasticPollution #SustainableShipping #Nospecificcountrycodesfoundinthetweet.

Moreover, it is not just the share or numbers that are important. Straws (similar to bottle caps) are particularly dangerous to marine wildlife due to their shape. We all have seen the video, where marine biologists remove plastic straws from this poor turtle's nostrils. https://t.co/UZxSGdX2Nk #PlasticPollution #SaveTheTurtles #MarineWildlife #Nospecificcountrycodescanbeidentifiedfromthetweetprovided.

Disapointing to see that the champion of plastic removal doubts any measure to prevent additional plastic coming into our rivers, lakes, oceans. The bans did not cover only straws, but other single use plastic such as bottle caps, bags, cuttlery... #PlasticPollution #Sustainability #EcoAwareness #Therearenospecificcountrycodesmentionedinthetweet.

Could food waste plastics be cheaper than fossil plastics? 👀 According to @_trifilon, they can! After years of development, their locally produced solution can remove the so-called "green premium".

Delighted to speak to the next generation of ocean guardians in Paris - schoolchildren actively engaged on the topics of plastic pollution and biodiversity preservation through the Educational Marine Area programme in 🇫🇷. Raising future eco-citizens starts here, and the ocean https://t.co/Qy7cnRjlPZ #OceanGuardians #PlasticPollution #Biodiversity #FR

The clean-up of millions of plastic pellets washed ashore in Sussex and Kent due to a spill from a Southern Water treatment works may take up to three years, according to the non-profit organization Nurdle, which is employing specialized equipment and relying on natural events to recover the plastics, while the Environment Agency investigates the incident's significant environmental impact. #PlasticPollution #EnvironmentalImpact #CleanUpEfforts #GB

Recent evidence indicates that the presence of microplastics and nanoplastics in human and animal livers may be exacerbating the global rise in liver diseases, with researchers highlighting possible biological mechanisms that could amplify liver damage, although a definitive causal relationship remains to be fully established. #PlasticPollution #LiverHealth #EnvironmentalHealth #GB

Evidence indicates that exposure to microplastics and nanoplastics may exacerbate the rising rates of liver diseases globally, as these particles have been found in human and animal livers and are believed to induce oxidative stress, inflammation, and fibrogenesis, although establishing a definitive causal link remains challenging. #PlasticPollution #LiverHealth #Microplastics #GB

Evidence suggests that exposure to microplastics and nanoplastics may exacerbate existing liver diseases, as these tiny plastic particles have been found in human livers and wildlife, leading researchers to investigate their potential role in the alarming rise of global liver pathology rates. #PlasticPollution #LiverHealth #Microplastics #GB
