Cigarette Butts as a Microplastic Time Bomb

4.5 trillion cigarette butts poison our environment annually! Each filter contains 15,000 microplastic fibers and over 7,000 toxic chemicals. A single butt contaminates 1,000 liters of water. Learn how we can act together without laws.

Microplastics from Shoe Soles

With every step, microplastics are created: shoe sole abrasion systematically burdens our environment. While politics fails, we deliver scientifically sound data instead of lobby estimates. Time for the polluter-pays principle!

Microplastic Footprint

Microplastics are everywhere—from the Arctic to human blood. While CO2 footprints are standard, until now, there has been no scale for microplastic assessment. We define the microplastic footprint and revolutionize detection using fluorescence.
