In this episode of Tap’d In, hosts Jordan and Lana dive into the unsettling connection between microplastic pollution and human health, inspired by a recent article from The Brockovich Report. A new study shows a troubling correlation: people living near plastic-contaminated coasts are experiencing higher rates of health issues, including possible neuroinflammation. These invisible particles—smaller than a sesame seed—are entering our bodies through air, food, and water. Jordan and Lana explore the surprising sources (like tires and waste mismanagement) and what both governments and individuals can do to turn the tide on this growing threat.
