Description

Matt Simon (@mrmattsimon) is a science writer at Wired magazine and the author of A Poison Like No Other: How Microplastics Corrupted Our Planet and Our Bodies.
What We Discuss with Matt Simon:

Microplastics contain a cocktail of toxic chemicals, many of which are linked to diseases like diabetes and cancer.
Microplastics break even further into nanoplastics, which are small enough to move through human organs — including the brain — and enter our cells.
Nearly everything around you — carpets, curtains, coasters, cups, packaging, clothing, couches, beds — contains plastic, and it all sheds plastic particles.
Your home is one of the most polluted places – you could inhale as many as 7,000 microplastics a day.
What we can do to reduce our exposure to microplastics and decrease our reliance on overall plastic consumption.
And much more...
