MicroPlastics - Is it a threat for the 2 Seas Area? (MICRO)

Start date: Jun 30, 2012, End date: Sep 29, 2014,

An increase in the production of plastics, to match the high demand brought about by our daily use of this material has contributed to a pollution phenomenon in the marine environment caused by plastic debris. Plastics are persistent materials, which tend to accumulate in the marine environment and affect marine life, as they remain in the ecosystem for years. Plastic materials degrade to smaller ...
