Boats have a LOT of plastic parts, navigation, gps, radio and other electronics. Lifeboats, even regular boat hulls, canoes and kayaks are more or less plastic. Forget all about rusting steel, bacteria (plastic termites) will sink your boat? Plastic termites = horror movie?

Kenyan scientists have discovered that larvae of the darkling beetle can digest plastic, potentially offering a solution to plastic waste. Despite producing only 5% of the world's plastic, Africa is now the second most plastic-polluted continent.

Scientists in Kenya have discovered a type of insect that can eat plastic, thanks to its gut bacteria. The team observed the lesser mealworm munching on polystyrene, and are now hoping to extract the stomach enzyme responsible for this, to be used on a larger scale.

🚨 BREAKING: Scientists just found specific gut bacteria that can trigger MS-like disease ... using identical twins as proof. One twin had MS, the other didn’t. They had the same DNA and the same upbringing. But, totally different gut bacteria. What they discovered is wild. Thread 🧵

BenDaDonnn seriously confronted Deshae Frost for throwing a plastic cup into the ocean. Ben explained that it was wrong because plastic pollution causes serious harm to marine life. "You see him? That's why you have that reputation ngga. I’d never allow plastic in the ocean ngga—dolphins, manatees, fish, squids?"

The world’s first food from plastic waste could be vanilla ice cream using bacteria and enzymes to digest polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and turn it into vanillin, at the moment this is art Hypothetically, would you eat food made from waste?

🥬 The bacteria in kimchi might be quietly pulling microplastics out of your body. Scientists found a probiotic strain that physically grabs onto plastic particles in your gut and carries them out as waste. 🔬 In mice, it more than doubled the nanoplastics excreted. ✨ #omgfacts #Kimchi #Science #Health
