PARRY SOUND —
Many of us have heard of the harmful effects of beads or microplastics on the environment, but the clothes you put in your washing machine can also be of concern.
At a meeting late last month, members of the Gulf of Georgia were always close to the Parry voice committee and asked to join.
Support for two pilot projects
Transfer, measurement and change of microplastics found in urban wastewater.
Permanent executive director of the Gulf of Georgia David sweernan gives council members a jar full of microfibersladened water —man-made fibre —
Take out about five previously washed lab coats from a pile of laundry items;
Displays the number of microfibers that can be taken out of the machine.
\"Microfibers and microplastics will eventually enter the drinking water of the crowd,\" Sweetnam said at a representative meeting on March 20 . \".
\"You hear this more and more in the accumulation of the Pacific Ocean, but they also happen in the pristine waters of the Gulf of Georgia.
What we want to do is we first
Previous studies, which will look at the impact of source reduction.
Sweetnam said that the current design of the wastewater treatment facility does not allow the removal of approximately microfibers entering the plant itself.
\"Therefore, one out of every five washing machines puts all the microfibers in the washing machine completely into the Bay of Georgia,\" he said . \".
The group is looking for resident volunteers for Parry Sound to install a diversion device on their washing machine.
The cost of the equipment and installation will come from the funds that the organization is looking for and permanent donors to the Gulf of Georgia.
\"We want to do a test before and after the measurement to see what impact it will have --if any —we can get.
It will be scientific.
We are science.
Based on organization.
We will work with the Rochman lab at the University of Toronto, which specializes in microfiber and microfiber testing, the first study ever, \"he said.
\"This is not happening anywhere else in the Great Lakes.
We are pleased to be able to participate in the origin of this study.
Interestingly, Parry Sound is a closed water.
We have a very good ability to measure the direct impact of a small population.
Sweetnam said that the transfer of fibers is important because they are now beginning to appear in the food chain, including human plates.
\"When these microfibers and microplastics enter the environment, they can also absorb toxins from the water --
They actually attract and absorb these things on the surface, and bioaccumulate or amplify these things, so these effects and their meaning to the population are currently being studied, \"he said.
In addition, the organization hopes to recruit citizens to help clean up the coastline.
\"I like this idea, I support your idea . . . . . . Anyone who casually looks at the Inner Harbor and then looks at the big voice, you can see where the waste water comes out of the port, said Cohn. Keith Saulnier.
\"The water flows through the north ditch of our pumping station.
This is the only open ice in the current big sound.
So I was wondering if we put these things into the water and then we sucked it up and drank it again.
I pay full attention to you.
I think this is a very good idea and I fully support it.
