Great #PlasticFreeJuly in Morecambe Beach yesterday! Members of the team attending the “Plastic Waste and Microplastics Research” event participated in the beach cleaning organised by Materials Science Institute Lancaster and in collaboration with the fabulous @_MBay! #ppipl #litter #beach

Great way to finish Materials Science Institute Lancaster Plastic waste and micro plastic event by envisioning what the future of plastics research might look like. Different forms, ideas & opportunities....

It's been a whole week since the beginning of our plastic waste and microplastic conference. We began the event with three fantastic talks by Alison Stowell, Prof. Meththika Vithanage & Prof. Crispin Halsall under Gaia at Lancaster Priory

An enormous thank you to Dr Sam Hill, Jo Ruxton, Prof., Polymer Scientist, waste not want not., Davey Jones & Prof. Meththika Vithanage for making the journey to Lancaster last week to join our question time panel hosted by Dr Anna Ploszajski - find me on Instagram . The audience gained a lot from all who participated.

The second day of the event got off to a super start with a presentation from our keynote Prof. Gay Hawkins on the Material Social Futures of Plastic. Then we heard our absolutely fantastic PhD students talk about the value, challenge & future of plastics.

A huge thank you to Lauren from @_MBay for leading a successful beach clean during our plastic waste and microplastic conference last week. Can you believe we collected that amount of litter in less than an hour?! Followed by dinner at The Midland Hotel.

Our Plastic Waste and Microplastic Event was a great success, bringing people from across Lancaster University and beyond together to discuss a common theme. Thanks to all who attended for your participation. We look forward to seeing the future development of plastic research at LU.
