A large number of plastic particles have been found in the Arctic snow, is there still a pure land

A study published in Science Advances states:Researchers have found large quantities of tiny plastic particles in the snow of the Arctic。That's right, the Pure Land of the Polar Regions, far from the hustle and bustle, in your impression, has long been invaded by plastic. At the same time, this study suggests that microplastics in Arctic snow may be transmitted to the poles through the air.

The experimental study was carried out by a team of scientists from Germany and SwitzerlandThey collected snow from ice floes in the Arctic and compared snow samples from urban areas in Europe and the Alps. According to the study, a snow sample from the Fram Strait had a concentration of about 14,000 microplastic particles per liter, while a European snow sample contained more than 150,000 microplastics per liter, and the size of the plastic particles was found to be between millimeters.

Melanie Bergmann, one of the leading researchers, said that although the Arctic was less polluted than the European samples, the results were also contrary to his current ability to divide it into two main types: plastic debris that was less than 5 millimeters before entering the environment, usually from the wastewater after washing clothes. The second is the pollution of some large plastic debris, including well-known beverage bottles, fishing nets, plastic bags, and so on.

They did want to find some pollutants in the Arctic, but they didn't expect that there would be so many microplastics. Microplastics are tiny particles that pollute the environment, and any plastic fragment less than 5 mm in length can be called microplastics. In fact, marine biologist Melanie Bergmann began to pay attention to plastic pollution in the Arctic around 2012 and found that its numbers were growing rapidly.

There must be, but there should be very few of them, so we must protect the environment.

It should have been polluted by plastic, and the pure land is definitely not anymore.

Of course, although humans have caused huge pollution to the earth in the past, now humans have realized the importance of the environment.

Pure land should be very rare, a large number of plastic particles in the Arctic snow can be transmitted through the air, and now people are particularly polluted white, we should advocate more to protect the environment!

Except for the deep sea, which is very deep above the ground level, I don't think there is any pure land on earth.

Many places on the earth are now full of human beings, but there are still some places that humans cannot reach yet.

The true Pure Land is long gone, and there are human footprints and human pollution behaviors all over the world.

I think there are still some, after all, the earth is so big, there are always places where humans have not reached, so there should be.

It means that a piece of pure land has been polluted after the collapse of human beings, and the ecological environment of the Antarctic region will be damaged to a certain extent.

Both the Arctic and the South Pole are very important locations on Earth, both of which can balance global temperatures and store large amounts of freshwater resources for humans. However, in the vast majority of cases, the ecological environment of the polar regions has been damaged to a certain extent. Especially with the continuous development of human society, the degree of destruction is also intensifying.

According to scientists, microplastic particles have appeared in blood samples from Antarctica, which has long been called the cleanest region. In our impression, it is all snowy, and there is no trace of human existence. It is the microplastics produced by humans that scientists still discovered in the course of this investigation.

This also shows from the side that the ecological environment of Antarctica has been affected to a certain extent. <>

Although the emergence of plastics has brought certain convenience to human life, there are two sides to everything. In particular, the emergence of plastics has directly led to the impact of plastic degradation in all regions of the world. Compared with traditional substances, plastics are more difficult to degrade in nature.

Some plastics even take 100 years to completely degrade in nature. And many of the microplastics that we can't see with the naked eye have been ingested by other animals. Eventually, the small amount also entered our human body, which has a great impact on human health.

The situation of microplastics has been investigated in the Antarctic region, which is actually very serious. Therefore, I believe that we should pay attention to the protection of the Antarctic ecological environment, especially the corresponding measures should be taken by various countries to strictly restrict the use of plastic products. <>

It shows that the global environmental pollution is becoming more and more serious, and the environmental safety problem should cause everyone to be right.

In one of the cleanest backgrounds in Antarctica, the discoverers even had uncivilized garbage made by humans.

If an inaccessible place like the Arctic can no longer be called a pure land, then there can be no real pure land on earth. The large amount of plastic particles contained in Arctic snow is clearly caused by airborne transmission and ocean water evaporation through the circulation of water vapour, yet the large quantities of plastic particles can be found so far away from human agglomeration societies that one can imagine how poor the air quality is elsewhere.

Imagine how polluted the air can be in a city with a large number of peopleThere are still a large number of automobile exhaust emissions, industrial exhaust emissions, and domestic exhaust emissions in human cities, so can it be considered that the air that people breathe into their bodies every day contains a large number of plastic particles and other chemicals? If you think about it, the living environment of human beings is getting worse and worse, and it is no longer suitable for human existence.

At the beginning of the 21st century, there was a period of news that the ozone layer over the earth was seriously damaged, and then there was the so-called reform of "fluorine" in air conditioners and refrigerators. In fact, it has not been repaired, in the sky above the earth today, the air that wraps the soil on which human beings depend is still being destroyed, and these are actually the fault of "fluorine".The reason for this is nothing more than the negative impact of today's industrial society as a whole.

In recent years, so-called "reforestation" activities have emerged around the world to improve air quality and protect human living space, but the rate of reforestation is far from the rate of air destruction. Nowadays, while people are seeking profits, how many people really look up at the starry sky and look at this space that gave birth to human beings?

Generally speaking, the serious pollution on the earth today is not the fault of one person, nor the fault of some science and technology, but the fault of the entire human society, which requires every human being to work hard and improve"Changing the environment, starting from me" is not an empty slogan, but a goal that needs to be taken seriously and worked hard for.

There are now only 1 4 pure lands left on the earth. There are experts**, by 2050 there will only be 1 10 pure land left. Daocheng Aden is one of the few pure lands left on the earth.

There is almost no pure land in the place where people can go, and this situation has happened many times, and it always makes people feel very helpless.

There is no pure land on Earth anymore, the Mariana Trench, which is also the deepest place on Earth, and garbage from the ground has also been found when it reaches 10,928 meters. The deep sea, which has not yet been fully understood by mankind, has already been taken by plastics, and from high to low, and even to the polar regions, human garbage seems to have escaped into all the crevices of the earth.

There are no more pure lands left in the world, environmental pollution is getting more and more serious, and plastic is very widely used, people are very dependent, and there are very few very clean places.

Because the current environmental pollution is really too serious, and no place can be spared.

If that's the case, then I think the pollution is too serious.

Although remote, the number of people arriving is increasing day by day. Need to pay attention.

Because the earth is so polluted now, every corner is polluted.

Because of the large area of environmental destruction, the Arctic has been affected.

Because the pollution of the entire earth's environment is so serious, it has also spread to the Arctic.

Because the whole environment is actually circulating, and the Arctic is actually more affected by humans.

Or is it because of people's destruction, which leads to serious pollution of the global environment.

We must do a good job of garbage sorting to protect the environment.

Now that the environment is polluted more and more seriously, we must have a sense of protection.

Not much, to protect our planet.

There will be less, so we need to protect our homes.

There will be fewer and fewer of them, and we need to cultivate awareness of protecting the environment as soon as possible.

It's basically gone, and the pollution is too bad.

There will be fewer and fewer of them, and we still need to have this kind of awareness.

There are fewer and fewer of them, and people need to be more environmentally conscious.

Nowadays, environmental pollution is getting more and more serious, and everyone needs to do their part.

It doesn't have to be the North Pole to appear at the South Pole, and the two places are far apart, so the South Pole can't be affected by the North Pole.

I think it has a lot to do with the climate and location of the Arctic, which is not far from the south, so it is not easy to produce this kind of garbage.

Because there is less human activity in the Antarctic than in the Arctic, there is less pollution, so it is not found.

I think it's just that it hasn't been discovered yet, or maybe the South Pole and the North Pole are two extremes, so the other one is too far away.

I think it has to do with the location, the South Pole is mainly far away from the places where people live, not as close as the North Pole.

Probably because there are few people going to the South Pole and the distance from the North Pole, it has not been discovered, but if it develops like this, it will definitely have an impact.

It may be that the pollution at the South Pole is not very serious, so it is difficult to see such a situation in Antarctica, which has a certain relationship with the degree of pollution.

According to current data, humans have indeed begun to pollute the Arctic environment. If we don't pay attention, Antarctica may soon be endangered by us.

I think yes, the environment has been seriously damaged now, and we need to work together to protect the environment.

I think it should be like this, because pollution is everywhere, so the harm that humans do to the earth is pervasive.

Human beings now lack environmental awareness, and the generation of all kinds of garbage will have a great impact on nature, so it has become pervasive

If we can't come to this conclusion, of course, the harm to human beings is not small, but it is indeed too alarmist and unreasonable to say that it is pervasive.

I think so, because the whole planet I feel like anywhere is going to be harmed by humans, and it's serious.

Yes, it's already snowing, how bad is it? We humans need to take good care of the environment.
