Today's wealth accumulation relies more on trade surpluses, but unequal bargaining power still shapes global economics.
Their 225-year database shows how different trade systems could have created more equitable development. The more things change... 📊

What's worse a spoons worth of micro plastics or 5 plastic bottle caps worth???

Scientists sound alarm after making disturbing discovery while studying human brains: 'This stuff is increasing in our world exponentially'
"Now studying tissue from cross-sections of a single brain to find out whether certain regions have higher ... concentrations."

"The human brain:
—had 7-30 times more accumulation of microparticles (MPs) than the liver or kidney l
— people with dementia had 5X accumulation of MPs compared with non-dementia
— a marked increase of accumulation over recent years"

The Brain on Microplastics: A Study in Mice Finds the Brain's Immune Cells Gorging on Plastic
The protective cells accumulated microplastics, instead of digesting them, and then the damaged cells clumped up in the brain’s vessels.

"Microplastics are everywhere.
For the first time, a recent study has tracked them moving through the bodies of mice in real time.
It found that they are gobbled up by immune cells, travel through the bloodstream & eventually become stuck in the blood vessels in the brain." - Simona Cristea
