Fish of the Habiganj river carry 1.7 microplastic particles on average, it says

A recent study has found a surge in harmful microplastics in sea salt produced over the last couple of years in the country.

Three and a half years into the High Court order to ban single-use plastic products in the coastal districts, there has been no visible progress towards implementation.

Scientists have discovered microplastics in live human lungs for the first time.

Mosquito larvae have been observed ingesting microplastics that can be passed up the food chain, researchers say, potentially uncovering a new way that the polluting particles could damage the environment.
