15% of the particles recovered from bees were microplastics. Of those, 52 percent were fragments and 38 percent were fibers. Polyester was the dominant resin, followed by polyethylene and polyvinyl chloride. https://t.co/Xl8wwGiz7G via @NatGeo #SaveTheBees

An important reminder that we must continue to mask up, stay socially distanced in public, and get tested as needed until we’re through COVID-19.

It's our birthday month! The first version of the Debris Tracker app launched ten years ago, and to celebrate, we're hoping to make this April our biggest tracking month yet.
