Four years, 13 sites, one principle: measure first, decide second. In REMEDIES 5.0 we deliver the microplastic data for Sylt, map the Danube together with schools and lead a work package. Here is what begins now.

Along 450 river kilometres between Vidin and Silistra, the first standardised microplastic mapping of the Bulgarian Danube is taking shape. Wasser 3.0 and LessPlastic Bulgaria are measuring together with schools and volunteers.

Microplastics are heating up the climate! New microplastics research shows: plastic particles disrupt the marine carbon pump and release greenhouse gases. But targeted removal at hotspots can prevent $390 billion in climate damage. Learn how simple this can be here.

120 students, more than 80 water samples, one clear hotspot: The Microplastic Detectives pilot project in Mannheim is complete and is now scaling up. Become a sponsor and help carry this movement forward.

Microplastics are everywhere — but how can they really be measured reliably? The new Wasser 3.0 study shows: with the right method, 21 instead of 51 samples are enough. And the new book Microplastics Crime Case explains what we can do starting today.
