Nanoplastics in the Brain: Humanities Ticking Time Bomb

Autopsies on human brains shows an average of a plastic fork or spoon by weight (7 grams) in the brain. That means the brain is only 99.5% brain and 0.5% plastic. The form of plastic in the brain is nanoplastics, which are very tiny shards of plastic. Brains of demented people were two or more forks. I chat about global plastic production, lack of plastic recycling, and how plastic breaks down in the environment, and how climate change accelerates the breakdown. I also consider how long it will take for 50% of the population to be demented… not too long…
