The world's first-ever microplastic test...

As the volume of microplastic in our bodies, food, and atmosphere grows, we launched microplastic.me - a global awareness campaign, informing audiences about how microplastic is formed, and how it can be reduced. With the campaign film depicting the dizzying POV journey of a microplastic particle, we invite audiences to take the world’s first-ever microplastic test.
