Once upon a time, in a little but dynamic town settled in the midst of rich green slopes, there was an inquisitive youthful boy named Mayan. Known for his voracious thirst for information, Mayan frequently went through hours watching nature and inquiring questions about the world around him. He was especially interested in creepy crawlies and their apparently marvelous capacities. One day, while meandering through a glade, he found a huge, purged glass jostle surrendered by a stream. A thought started in his mind—a little try to get the behavior of fleas better.

Nanoplastics from Real-World Plastic Waste Can Adsorb Heavy Metal Ions, Study Reveals
Plastic pollution is one of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time. While the visible impacts of plastic waste are alarming, a growing body of research highlights an even more insidious threat: nanoplastics. These tiny plastic particles, measuring less than 100 nanometers (nm) in size, are generated when larger plastic debris breaks down in the environment. A recent study has revealed that nanoplastics derived from real-world plastic waste can readily adsorb heavy metal ions, significantly increasing environmental and health risks.
