The calcium carbonate in hard water encapsulates nanoplastics as it becomes the flaky crust you sometimes see at the bottom of your tea kettle.

One area of research is how air pollutants interact with air particles like snow. A new study in Environmental Science shows that snow acts like a magnet for pollutants, taking them out of the air.

Los Angeles has plans to be rid of their infamous smog by 2050.

Scientists using a microbe that occurs naturally in eastern cottonwood trees have boosted the ability of two other plants – willow and lawn grass – to withstand the withering effects of the nasty industrial pollutant phenanthrene and take up 25 to 40 percent more of the pollutant than untreated plants.
