For #BeatPlasticPollutionDay 2021, Museum scientist Alex McGoran (@pokegirl93), ocean advocate Emily Penn (@missemilypenn) and Museum ambassador David de Rothschild (@avoicefornature) discussed conversation and discovered what impacts microplastics are having on the planet, where they come from and what we can all do to stop more from spreading across the world.⁠
