@ManonLepage2 This is the #1 reason why I now post links to google docs rather than PDFs. Instant updating.

@MicroPlastic101 @wastefreephd +1 to this. I've also found that adding a few drops of brewing defoamer just after adding the peroxide works wonders to keep all the foam in check.

Searching for a post-doc at the University of Toronto to study microplastics in the atmosphere in urban and Arctic environments. Please retweet. @sustainablesam_ and @lisaerdle

@ChelseaRochman @BedBathBeyond Fingers crossed this is a bad April Fools Day gag.

@Irreverent_KUP @EnviroMichaela @SETAC_plastics This is what we do. We run all our ZnCl2 through 4 different filters of decreasing porosity. If you are using a Buchner funnel or something similar, try putting some 250-500µm mesh underneath the filter.

"This is amongst the first studies to report on concentrations of #microplastics in a western Canadian freshwater system..." https://t.co/mc0tZgFgW7

They’ve been found near Everest’s peak and along the ocean floor, and now microplastics have been discovered along the North Saskatchewan River, Edmonton’s sole source of drinking water.

Ever wonder why a paper coffee cup is considered #SingleUsePlastic? THIS PICTURE, of a Tim Horton's cup that landed in one of our Seabins within the @GLPCleanup, IS WORTH 1000 WORDS!!!! @UofTTrashTeam
