Tommy Cedervall interviewed on nanoplastic

Tommy Cedervall has been interviewed about nanoplastics on two different occations during September. WHO issued a report on an analysis of current research related to microplastics in drinking-water and Tommy was interviewed on the need for more research because we do not yet know how nanoplastics affect humans and nature.

Later a research report from McGill University concluded that nanoplastics leak into tea from teabags during brewing and Tommy was interviewed on the effects of nanoplastics on biological systems.
