How Does Plastic Get Into The Body [塑料如何进入人体] by Nanjing University of the Arts

Since humans are at the top of the biological chain, the cumulative toxicity of persistent organic pollutants and other substances can be amplified many times through media such as microplastics. Therefore, it may take time and amount of accumulation to realize the harm caused by microplastics to people. It is like a circle, and eventually microplastics exist in our daily food and enter the human body. This process is a little like boiling frog in warm water, which makes people lose their vigilance and cannot be taken lightly.


This infographic is an attempt to draw attention to plastic pollution, otherwise we will have to eat our own medicine.

 

由于人类位于生物链顶端,会通过微塑料等介质将持久性有机污染物和其他物质的毒性累积放大无数倍。因此,微塑料对人造成的危害可能需要时间和数量的积累来实现,就像是一个圈,最终微塑料存在于我们的日常食物中进入人类的身体,这个过程有点像温水煮青蛙,让人们失去警觉,不可掉以轻心。
创作此信息图表就是想引起人们对于塑料污染的重视,否则我们只能自食其果。
