A recent study, published in the Environmental Science and Technology journal, found that Malaysia has the highest per capita microplastic consumption amongst 109 countries. Malaysia is also among the top ten countries that inhales the most microplastic particles each day. How are these invisible pollutants entering our lives, and what can be done to stop it from continuing to happen? On this episode of #ConsiderThis Melisa Idris speaks to hydro-ecologist Professor Dr Christopher Gibbins, Professor at the School of Environmental and Geographical Sciences at University of Nottingham Malaysia.
