Plastic’s hidden cost to our climate

CUPIDO aims to address: what is the role of zooplankton in promoting the transport of plastic in the ocean? And how this plastic transport interferes with zooplankton’s ability to store carbon in the deep ocean?

Plastic reduces how krill remove carbon into deep ocean

New research shows that increased levels of plastic pollution in the Southern Ocean could reduce the ability of Antarctic krill, a tiny shrimp-like crustacean, to help take CO2 from the atmosphere.
