Episode description

A new study found that the human brain may contain up to a spoon’s worth of microplastics. Carolyn Kormann, writer with The New Yorker and New York Magazine, breaks down her latest reporting for New York Magazine, which shows that the amount of microplastics in the human body has been increasing over the past few decades, and explains what that means for health and how to minimize exposure.
