Summary

Our environment is facing a new challenge: microplastics. A lot of this material is found in our waterways, and researchers are working hard at identifying where they come from and how we can mitigate this problem before it gets worse.

In this episode, Dr. Skaggs talks about:

His role at The Pontchartrain Conservancy.
The importance of improving waterways for future generations.
