#ATM Students from Mass Communications Department @QatarUniversity are at @escqu to interview on the Center’s project on microplastic pollution.

Every plastic and aluminum manufacturer or companies using plastics/ aluminum in their products should install these around Qatar. Or the government should have these at some areas in the country albaladiya @QF as… https://t.co/gkiJyZlSZx

This is another better way to eliminate #plasticwaste .. hope they install this in all #supermarket in #Doha #Qatar and in every #country..

An environmental problem? Or a lifestyle problem? 🤔

Really interesting talk by ⁦@schuerc⁩ - is fluorescence really a good way of determining #microplastic particle ingestion by #Daphnia? #micro2018

[Dr. Winnie Courtene-Jones @WinnieCJ]

Thought this was fascinating! Much more homogeneous distribution of #microplastics in deeper water than surface waters
Supports some of the data I've been finding of microplastic concs in the #deepsea (more about this Thurs @ 10.30am)
