The Department of Health and Human Services and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) are taking bold strides to protect Americans' health, announcing programs combatting microplastics.
Nevada lawmakers have advanced legislation aimed at curbing microplastic pollution in Lake Tahoe by restricting the sale and distribution of large plastic water bottles. Senate Bill 324, passed by a 16–4 vote, targets containers over four liters in size and applies to all communities surrounding the popular freshwater lake.
