The Link Between Low-Quality Plastic and Microplastic Pollution
April 30, 2025
While plastic may seem to be the obvious cause of growing microplastic pollution, an unseen significant player lurks in its shadows. Low-grade plastics contribute significantly towards higher microplastic presence within the environment, harming marine life and entering the human food chain.
