Keep our tax dollars in our local schools

Researchers found microplastics in each of the 53 waterways they sampled throughout 2020, a survey that reveals the impact of these long-lasting pollutants on the entire Delaware Estuary.
“The staggering amount of microplastics we found likely means that no river, lake or stream is safe from this increasingly common contaminant,” said Faran Savitz, one of the project’s researchers, in a news release about the study.
The project by PennEnvironment, a nonprofit environmental research group, is just one of many efforts initiated in the last several years to develop a better understanding of just how bad microplastic pollution is in the Delaware Estuary system. Other groups currently conducting research in the region include the Environmental Protection Agency, United States Geological Survey, Delaware River Basin Commission, Philadelphia Water Department, Rutgers, and University of Delaware. ....
