> Now, to mark the 20th anniversary of his discovery, Thompson has written a new paper looking back at the over 7,000 research studies that have been published about microplastics since his discovery. The aim is to understand how pervasive and problematic plastics can be — and what it’ll take to find a fix.
> I’m very much of the view now that we’ve got more than enough evidence actually to stop defining the problem, and to move on to the solutions,” said Thompson
