Giftige Nachbarschaft? Warum unser Lebensstil die Ostsee gefährdet
Europas Müllproblem spitzt sich zu: Kaliningrad könnte zur Giftmülldeponie werden und damit die Ostsee und ihr Ökosystem massiv gefährden.
Un bioplastique en carapace de crevette, résistant à l’eau et issu de déchets naturels
En utilisant des résidus organiques d’origine animale, une équipe de scientifiques a mis au point un prototype de plastique entièrement bio. Il pourrait, à terme, être utilisé pour fabriquer des filets de pêche ou des emballages industriels.
How we turned plastic waste into vinegar: A sunlight‑powered breakthrough | The-14
Scientists developed a sunlight-powered method that converts plastic waste into acetic acid, offering a cleaner recycling pathway and new use for discarded plastics.
Plastic, from home and abroad, spills into Türkiye’s waters
ADANA, Türkiye — Along the final stretch of the Seyhan River, in southern Türkiye, plastic bits in various colors dot the water and sediment. When the river bends, shredded plastic, degraded by the elements, forms large gray patches. Downstream, where the Seyhan flows into Mersin Bay, debris large enough to display clues to its origin […]
Decorative Glitter Is Contributing To Global Microplastic Pollution
"Here, there and everywhere: Due to its minuscule size and its ease of scattering, glitter is more harmful than other sorts of microplastics."

Plastic pollution is a global environmental crisis, but what if we could design plastics that automatically deconstruct after use?
My latest article for @mongabay looks at a recent study that used clever chemistry — inspired by the way DNA, RNA, and proteins break down — to do just that.

Promising breakthrough creates plastics that self-deconstruct on cue: Study
Plastics have a gigantic built-in problem: They’re tenacious, which is very good for a milk jug or a car bumper. But they don’t easily break down, which is bad for the environment. From the 1950s, when plastics were first produced in significant amounts, through 2017, the petrochemical industry churned out more than 8.3 billion metric […]
