🔔Seminar Opportunity🔔
We're looking for (self)recommendations for a Postdoc who is working in the area of AMR (any area, any discipline) to give an online seminar in May.
Reply, DM or email me, there will more opportunities in the future as well so will be good to have a list.

This is figure 2, which shows scaled bottom-up emissions and comparison with top-down and bottom-up estimates.
Microplastic emissions into the air from land sources are estimated to be about six hundred quadrillion particles per year, which is more than 20 times larger than emissions from the oceans, according to an analysis in Nature. go.nature.com/4jWQCei
