Plastic particles below mm in length are called microplastics. They are very and are carried by water and air. Microplastics can travel for up to ten thousand . These little pieces of go into soil, rivers, lakes, oceans and pollute also remote from the North to the South Pole, from Mount Everest to the Mariana Trench.

2 Listen and choose. 77 DIGITAL

Scientists say that the number of microplastic particles in the water / air of the globe is equal to five hundred times the planets / stars in our galaxy. Microplastics can be ingested by marine fish / animals. The plastic then accumulates and can end up in humans through the food / drink chain.

3 Read and match.

The primary source of microplastics comes from industry that produces microplastic to make:

• fleece fabric

• glitter

• toothpaste

• shampoo

• laundry detergents

• nylon teabags

This type of particle is 15-31% of the microplastics that pollute rivers, lakes and seas.

The secondary source of microplastics comes from the degradation of small / large plastic objects: glass / plastic bags, bottles or fishing nets. This kind of particle is 69-81% of the microplastics that pollute the water of our blue / red planet.
