Microplastics are beginning to show great impacts on human health and contributing to
environmental issues such as global warming. The reason why Microplastics is becoming such
a popular topic is because many scientists are unexpectedly starting to find microplastics in
their experiments. This has left many scientists confused as to why they are finding this much
plastic and most importantly what source does the plastic use to be able to travel all around.
Microplastics are one of the major components that are affecting human health. This is due to
the pollution that has been entering our bodies bit by bit, causing build up in our bodies and
causing fatal diseases such as cancer and other harmful diseases.
Microplastic have caused issues that have always been a part of the environment and
human health, however recently many scientists have begun to unexpectedly find microplastics
in their experiments, this lead a series of scientists to investigate and question the amount of
microplastics that they find in a small area. However as scientists began to investigate how
microplastics travel they also began to uncover issues about the harmful impacts that
microplastics may cause to humans and the environment. In order to specifically see the steps
and methods that scientists used to uncover these truths, there are 3 articles in which each
article explains how scientists discovered microplastics and what experiments they did to see
the harmful effects of microplastics.
