In the largest of Western Europe with “alarming” lots of micro-plastics

However, the European rivers are cleaner than the world’s most polluting rivers.

Several studies have been published on the micro-plastic levels of the nine largest rivers in Western Europe.

The studies included Elbe, Ebro, Garonne, Loire, Rhône, Rhine, Seine, Thames and Tiber.

According to him, the number of small amounts of water must be proportional to the amount of flowing water. In this way, for example, in the Rhône River in the Rhône River, 3,000 micro-plastic particles per second in the Rhône River.

In the world’s most polluting, where the amount of micro -plastic is many times higher. For example, in Mekong, Ganges and Indus, an average of 40 particles in a cubic meter have been measured.

Studies have been published in the Environmental Science and Pollution Research magazine.
