On today's episode, Kurt interviews the renowned author of “The Plastics Paradox”, keynote speaker, and advocate for the truth about plastics, Doctor Chris DeArmitt.

We discuss how Chris became involved in researching the real effects of plastics in the environment and the new hot topic of microplastics.  The truth is fascinating!

Chris has started a non-for-profit called "The Plastics Research Council" to stay abreast of thousands of peer-reviewed studies on materials, waste, litter, ocean plastics, degradation, microplastics and more.

Please visit the site and I ask that you consider supporting it.
