The session will be focused on understanding the science behind the effect of microplastics and nanoplastics on our ocean and the biodiversity. It will also explore the impact of microplastics on the health of animals and humans. The session will also look at different solutions that can be adopted to effectively mitigate the issues caused due to microplastics.
The sea is an experience, a feeling, a connection, it is one that houses many. Any thinking being who has been drawn to this great blue mantle can share and agree with this. But what is it that draws us to the ocean? We are not an underwater species, nor do we have the advantage to breathe underwater, but our bodies are made of mainly water. We need to connect to the ocean.
I think I have rewritten this blog two, three, four times in the last three days now. After being in quarantine for about three months now it seems a long time ago I was out there making a difference, at some deserted beach looking for plastic, or in front of a group of people explaining to them why I think the circular economy could be a great solution for ocean plastic pollution.
