Unseen Impacts — Microplastics in Our Environment
Microplastics are no longer an unseen issue but an unavoidable reality — they’re in our environment, our food systems, and even our bodies. As scientists unravel how these tiny, human‑made particles move through ecosystems and affect both environmental and human health, a clearer picture of their global consequences is emerging.
Join us for an essential exploration of microplastics with a panel of three experts who will examine efforts to reduce microplastics in our oceans, investigate their impacts on the human body, and reveal where researchers are finding them here in Utah.
