Did you know that tire wear is one of the largest sources of microplastic pollution in urban environments? The Michigan Microplastics Coalition is excited to invite our next meeting, which includes a special presentation about the tire emissions of microplastics in the San Francisco Bay Area led by environmental scientist Dr. Ezra Miller. Dr. Miller explores how these tiny particles make their way into San Francisco Bay, the latest research on their impacts, and what it means for our ecosystems and communities. This research is important because of the similarities between the Great Lakes states infrastructure and ecosystem and that of the Bay area.
Don’t miss this opportunity to learn, ask questions, and be part of the solution. We’ll also share coalition updates that include a summary of Sierra Club Michigan's Citizens Lobby Day, where we advocated for legislation to address microplastics in the Great Lakes region, and ways you can take action.
