21 Oct 2019 --- In a world first in Amsterdam earlier this month, the Plastic Health Summit brought together experts to consider the impact on health of BPA, PFAS, phthalates and other chemical additives commonly found in plastic. Although still in its infancy, research in this space is growing. The conference saw an array of research projects presented and ended with a joint statement from experts calling for more research to better understand the consequences of microplastics, in particular, on human health.
