dc.description.abstract | Plastic is convenient. It's cheap, versatile, and useful. The trouble is that it never goes away. While plastic is recyclable and can be reused in the form of lesser quality plastic. it can never be completely eliminated. Instead, it breaks down into smaller and smaller fragments, called microplastics, that stay in the sea. The only way they are ever removed is if fish eat them - coloured ones look especially tasty - or if they enter some orifice of ours while we're enjoying our summer sun on the beach. | en_GB |
