Polyethylene microplastics adhere to Lemna minor (L.), yet have no effects on plant growth or feeding by Gammarus duebeni (Lillj.)
Alicia Mateos-Cárdenas,David T Scott,Gulzara Seitmaganbetova,van Pelt Frank N A M,O'Halloran John,Jansen Marcel A K +5 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the freshwater amphipod Gammarus duebeni can ingest 10-45 μm PE microplastics by feeding on contaminated L. minor, showing that the fate of microplastic in the environment may be complex, involving both plant adsorbance and trophic transfer.

Acute respiratory effects of particulate air pollution
Douglas W. Dockery,C. A. Pope +1 more
TL;DR: In the 1930s, 40s, and 50s, several episodes of extreme air pollution focused attention on the potential for adverse health effects of air pollution, and the increased mortality associated with such episodes provided the first quantitative measure of the adverse effects ofAir pollution.
