Hello dear friends of ecotrain, I hope you are all well, we certainly live in strange times, or rather, we are the strangers. Unlike for example the boomer generation, which was a generation that lived for many years the risk of the annihilation of the human race in a nuclear war, and this formed a culture of fear and preparedness, we process the tragedy and the danger of another potential global catastrophe in a different way. With black humor. Today I will show you a bit of such black humor regarding one of the forms of climate tragedy.

Microplastics in our blood.

In a publication of enviorement international researchers showed to the public the discovery of microplastics in the blood of human beings, although the study was conducted with a small sample, {22 people} 17 turned out to have microplastics in their blood, which is the same, 77 percent, and the result is no surprise since scientists had suspected it for a long time. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/microplastics-detected-in-human-blood-180979826/

Microplastics have been found in places as remote as the top of Mount Everest, the bottom of ocean trenches, a multitude of animal species, the upper atmosphere, and even in the eses of adults and babies.....

Then it started to happen, over the days the reaction on the internet changed from alarm to a kind of black humor... and my Facebook feed became very weird....

First it was little by little... memes of minimal effort and not so funny.

Then they became more... spicy...

I guess you can...garnish...the topic of microplastics and food with this meme.

Then they became really funny while delivering the message.

So that's where all those bags come from that the supermarket charges me for and I never receive...

Conclusion

although the issue of microplastics in human blood is just one more chapter in the modern tragedy of the damage we do to the planet... it is also important, and studies are already beginning to show the negative effects they have on our health... laughing at something so terrible although it may not be the most appropriate, it is certainly serving to carry the message to more people in the world... I hope that at least... it will serve some purpose, and if not... at least we will laugh so we don't cry.
