About Microplastic Pollution

Microplastic pollution is an escalating global concern, with growing evidence of its widespread presence in food, air, and water. Despite extensive research quantifying microplastic contamination across various environments, translating these findings into practical tools for public awareness and individual health risk assessment remains a significant challenge.

This dashboard introduces a user-friendly simulation model designed to estimate daily microplastic exposure by integrating diverse data sources and human activity patterns. By providing actionable insights, we aim to not only enhance public awareness but also empower users to make informed decisions to reduce exposure risks in their daily lives.

How to Reduce Your Microplastic Exposure:

  • Use reusable water bottles instead of single-use plastic bottles
  • Choose natural fiber clothing over synthetic materials
  • Avoid cosmetics containing microbeads
  • Use glass or stainless steel food containers instead of plastic
  • Vacuum regularly to reduce indoor microplastic dust
  • Support policies aimed at reducing plastic pollution
