Finally we might have a way to stop nearly all microplastics from
our laundry before they enter the environment. Thanks to a new
fish-inspired filter that removes over 99 % of these tiny plastic
fibres from washing machine wastewater. Scientists are now
arguing that microbes underpin almost every ecosystem on the
planet, from fertile soils to healthy oceans.

All to discuss on this week's Green Scene with Dr Ruth Freeman
Director of Research for Society For Research Ireland.

All with thanks to Repak.
