Description

A quiz which aims to help bust myths and misconceptions around plastics in the global environment.

Researchers from the University of Strathclyde and the Helmholtz-Zentrum Hereon in Germany launched an online resource on the eve of a United Nations event on global plastics pollution in Kenya.

The Coastal Pollution Toolbox (CPT) includes a ‘Plastic Mythbusters’ quiz which allows participants to test their knowledge of plastics and discover which popular statements about plastic pollution are true, which are uncertain or which are entirely lacking in any scientific basis.
