FINDING: Masks will silently deprive humans of oxygen for years to come through microplastic pollution
For the first time, scientists have detected microplastic pollution in human blood. The study, published in Environment International, detected plastic particles in almost 80% of the people they tested. These microplastics may be consumed or inhaled. These microplastics can attach to red blood cells, harming oxygen utilization in the bloodstream. They also interfere with glandular […]

Microplastics alter the shape of human lung cells, warn scientists
Scientists are determined to figure out the widespread impacts of plastic pollution along with its downstream effects on the environment and human health. Microplastics are everywhere, and according to one study, these minuscule pieces of plastic can alter human lung cells. The study was conducted by researchers from Florida State University (FSU) and published in the journal Chemical […]
