Plastics are everywhere, and they can cause environmental and health problems. Follow researchers as they track plastics from a river to the ocean, and see how scientists test how harmful microplastics are when they enter our bodies. Also, learn about an NC start-up that creates biodegradable, plant-based plastic, and visit the Duke Toxicology Program, which tests the safety of art supplies.
