Dr. Winnie Courtene-Jones reviews what ocean microplastics science now shows about sources, movement, accumulation, and effects on marine food webs. The conversation also maps the major unknowns, including nanoplastics, fragmentation rates, and thousands of chemicals associated with plastics. It closes by connecting marine pollution research with policy and negotiations for a Global Plastics Treaty.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Support</strong> our science communication by joining us on <a href=\"https://patreon.com/PineForestMedia?utm_medium=unknown&amp;utm_source=join_link&amp;utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&amp;utm_content=copyLink\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Patreon</a> or sending us a gift on <a href=\"https://www.paypal.biz/pineforestmedia\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">PayPal</a></p><p><br></p><p>Special thanks to the <a href=\"https://www.montereybayaquarium.org/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Monterey Bay Aquarium</a> for sponsoring this episode.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Episode Guests</strong>: <a href=\"https://winniecourtenejones.wixsite.com/home\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Dr. Winnie Courtene-Jones</a></p><p>Follow Dr. Courtene Jones on <a href=\"https://bsky.app/profile/winniecj.bsky.social\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Blue Sky</a></p><p>Find the article <a href=\"https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.adl2746\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">20 Years of Microplastic Research: What have we learned?</a></p><p>Connect with the <a href=\"https://www.linkedin.com/company/scientists-coalition-for-an-effective-plastics-treaty/?lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_search_srp_all%3BwfJOKaHJRNOCA7VByBSZkw%3D%3D\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Scientists’ Coalition for an Effective Plastics Treaty on LinkedIn</a></p><p>Review Dr Courtene-Jones’ publications on <a href=\"https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=en&amp;user=vtZatnQAAAAJ&amp;view_op=list_works&amp;sortby=pubdate\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Google Scholar</a></p><p><br></p><p>Explore artwork by <a href=\"https://www.vonwong.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Benjamin Von Wong</a></p><p><br></p><p>Listen to Plastic Podcast on <a href=\"https://open.spotify.com/show/4Iv20PynWeNKEZtq5O5UOj?si=MW-ZYI8zS0mUroec9T_lfA\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Spotify</a> or <a href=\"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/plastic-podcast/id1737963995\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Apple Podcasts</a></p><p>Plastic Podcast: <a href=\"https://shows.acast.com/plastic-podcast/episodes/the-truth-about-biodegradable-plastics\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">The Truth about Biodegradable Plastics</a></p><p>Plastic Podcast: <a href=\"https://shows.acast.com/plastic-podcast/episodes/a-united-nations-treaty-on-plastics-pollution\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Busan and Beyond - A UN Treaty on Plastics&nbsp;</a></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>Episode Transcript&nbsp;and more information on the <a href=\"http://pineforestpods.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Pine Forest Media </a>website</p><p>Follow Pine Forest Media on Instagram <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/pineforestmedia/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">@pineforestmedia</a></p><p>Hosted, produced, and edited by Clark Marchese&nbsp;</p><p>Cover art by<a href=\"https://jomiro.webflow.io/about\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> Jomiro Eming</a></p><p>Theme music by <a href=\"http://nelaruizcomposer.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Nela Ruiz</a></p><p><br></p><p>Find some more Pine Forest Media podcasts below</p><p>Listen to Plastic Podcast on <a href=\"https://open.spotify.com/show/4Iv20PynWeNKEZtq5O5UOj?si=MW-ZYI8zS0mUroec9T_lfA\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Spotify</a> or <a href=\"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/plastic-podcast/id1737963995\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Apple Podcasts</a></p><p>Listen to Something in the Water on <a href=\"https://open.spotify.com/show/5HGQytPxV6FfcX03OUBXYf?si=YszhS8C4ToafplCEsEErAQ\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Spotify</a> or <a href=\"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/something-in-the-water/id1740586381\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Apple Podcasts</a></p>","author_name":"Pine Forest Media | Environmental Science Podcasts"}
