NGT orders report on health impact of microplastics in human blood

Image: Representative Image

(From Representative) Ahmedabad, Friday

The National Green Tribunal has ordered to prepare and submit a detailed research-based report on the effects of microplastic particles found in the human body on human health. Details of its physical and mental effects have been reported. Micro plastic particles have been found in the blood flowing through the human body due to the units posing a threat to human health by polluting water, land and forest.

Microplastics enter the bloodstream through food and water

The present order comes after a committee constituted by the National Green Tribunal upheld the fact that fine particles of plastic are being found in the blood of the human body. Fine particles of microplastics are getting into the blood cells through food and water. Due to this, the risk to human health is increasing. Even through breathing, heavy metals are entering the human body. Microplastic particles in human blood are also increasing due to water seeping into the ground from landfill sites. The National Green Tribunal constituted a committee to study this. It included the Central Pollution Control Board, Indian Council of Medical Research, Central Institute of Petrochemicals Engineering and Technology and NCSCM and other expert bodies in the committee. This committee investigated and reported that it is true that microplastic particles are entering the human blood. Studies have revealed ultrafine particles of plastic in human saliva, blood, intestines, and even lungs. The committee said in its report that due to drinking of polluted water, disposal of plastic in sewers, lack of facilities to separate fine plastic particles in sewage treatment plants and early plastic with water flowing on the surface, ultra-fine plastic particles are entering the human body and from there into human blood. is The committee of experts said that this situation is being created as pipelines carrying drinking water are also made of plastics including polyethylene, plovinyl chloride, polypropylene.

Microplastics are also believed to leach into water through detergents

As a result of reasons including sewage water, plastic used as mulching in agriculture, plastic going into municipal waste, plastic particles have also started increasing in the soil. Microplastics are also thought to leach into water through laundry detergent.

There is no reliable method to measure fine plastic particles in the atmosphere

Very fine particles of plastic are found in early blood and other organs in the human body, but there is no standard system for measuring how much of it is in the air, water or soil. The ISO is currently studying this. How much plastic enters the human body due to which source has not yet been studied in detail

Microplastics enter the human body from industrial waste

As the contaminated waste is not properly managed by the industries, the contaminated water is not properly treated and the microplastic is getting mixed in the water and through it getting into the human body and blood. However, a detailed study of how much plastic enters the human body due to which source has not yet been done.

Five decades after man's arrival, 'moon trip' difficult, 60 out of 146 missions fail

Image
India tried to land on the moon in 2019 which failed. In 2023, India's space agency ISRO successfully landed on the moon. India is the first country to successfully land on the South Pole of the Moon unscathed. This success of India is also big because so far a total of 146 lunar missions have been launched out of which 60 have failed. Only four countries made a soft landing on the lunar surface According to Dr. Gail Isles of RMIT University, Australia, the Moon is the only celestial body other than Earth where humans have set foot. It also makes sense to go there first as it is our closest object at about four kilometers away. Interestingly, only four countries have made a soft landing on the surface of the moon so far. On the other hand, its South Pole is still mysterious, where only India has been able to reach. So many countries have failed Even Russia, the first country to make a soft landing on the moon 60 years ago, recently failed to land Luna-25 on the moon's sout...

What do you know about the world's most poisonous tree growing on the south coast of India?

Image
Chennai, July 30, 2020, Thursday Every plant and herb on earth has some medicinal properties. Life without vegetation is unimaginable. However, in some countries of South East Asia, including India, it has been nicknamed the Suicide Tree because of the poisonous tree called Sarbera odolam. This tree is as dangerous as it looks green and attractive. In addition to its fruits, flowers and leaves, the seeds also contain a toxic element called cerberine which can kill a person instantly. Even a normal dose of it can cause stomach upset, pain, and vomiting. The heartbeat seems to be irregular. In addition, no medication or treatment is effective.

Impact of global warming: The country's last 4,000-year-old iceberg also collapsed

Image
Toronto, Ta. 09 August 2020, Sunday Much of the final iceberg in Canada has collapsed due to warmer climates and rising global temperatures, turning it into vast iceberg islands. An iceberg is a floating piece of ice formed by the erosion of a glacier or glacier from the ground to the surface of the ocean. According to scientists, Canada's 4,000-year-old iceberg on the northwest corner of Ellesmere Island was the country's last intact iceberg by the end of July. Adrian White, an ice analyst at the Canadian Snow Service, found that 43 percent of the images taken by satellite were broken. He said this is an event around July 30 or July 31. White said the iceberg had broken into two huge icebergs as well as smaller ones, and that the iceberg had already begun to float. The largest glacier is about the size of Manhattan i.e. 55 square kilometers and this is 11.5 kilometers long. While its thickness is 230 to 260 feet. He said this is a huge, very large piece of ice. "If a...

Space Babies: Technology surpasses limits, baby will be born in space through IVF

Image
It has become possible for humans to go into space, now scientists are making efforts to explore the issue of giving birth there. Recently, British scientists have teamed up with a Dutch space company to develop technology to deliver human babies in space. This technology will primarily consist of a form of artificial insemination. The Dutch company developing this type of technology is called Spaceborn United. The company's plan is to build a bio-satellite, within which preparations are being made for the birth of children by preparing artificial insemination based on IVF treatment. Babies born this way will be known as space babies. The first test flight of this bio-satellite is likely to be ready in the next three months. It will be launched from Canada. Dr. Ebert Edelbrock of Spaceborne United said, "Our goal is to make human reproduction in space possible in the future."
