Dr. Mason gained initial recognition as the first to research and identify microplastics pollution in the Great Lakes\, the largest freshwater system in the world. Her work has drawn international attention to the threats posed by microplastics in freshwater and led to the passage of state measures banning microbeads (extremely small pieces of plastic used in cleansing products as exfoliating agents) and to the enactment of the federal Microbead-Free Waters Act of 2015. \nThis community event is a must for anyone concerned about the environmental and public health impact of plastics pollution. \nLimited space.
