Our webinar series in 2025 continues with How to Cover Plastic Pollution
Many of the thousands of chemicals contained in plastic have been linked to human health impacts such as cancer. Microplastics have been found everywhere on the planet, from the deepest part of the ocean to the highest mountain, and in human bodies. On this Mongabay Webinar we speak with three experts for their insight on how to cover this pressing issue which experts are calling a global human health crisis.
The discussion will be broadcast live on Mongabay's YouTube Channel and LinkedIn account. We highly recommend following us on either platform.
