Plastic pollution reaches our oceans, food, bodies, and laws. Plastic Podcast is a 28-episode limited series exploring microplastics, human health, recycling, climate change, and the policies shaping the future of plastic.Hosted by science communicator Clark Marchese, the series brings together chemists, marine biologists, historians, artists, activists, legal researchers, Indigenous scholars, and policy experts to trace the past, present, and future of humanity’s relationship with plastic.Episodes investigate microplastics in food, drinking water, soil, coral reefs, and Antarctica, alongside biodegradable plastics, chemical recycling, the global plastic waste trade, Cancer Alley, zero waste cities, and the UN plastics treaty.Rigorous without being alarmist, Plastic Podcast connects environmental science with policy, culture, health, and justice. Discover not only where plastic pollution ends up, but how it was created, who bears its costs, and how the systems behind it can change.Plastic Podcast is produced by Pine Forest Media.
