"The Future Belongs To Those Who Prepare For It Today."

The MARINA discography saga continues. Been a bit since I was so fixated on an artist, but her songwriting is a breath of fresh air.

My chemistry midterm is tomorrow, my math midterm (day before yesterday) went. Absolutely terribly. Because our teacher came up with original questions and cancelled stuff. So that's not a fun precedent for the rest of my internals.

I really enjoy chemistry so my concepts are definitely there, now I need to go through fine print.

Why pineapple leaves are a promising candidate to replace plastic materials used in single-use masks

The COVID-19 pandemic has led to an increased demand for single-use masks, putting pressure on global plastic waste problems.

A single face mask can release as many as 173,000 microfibers per day into the seas. According to a 2020 report by an environmental group OceansAsia, about 1.56 billion face masks entered oceans globally in 2020.

Face masks are made from combination of several types of plastic. There are several layers of plastic in one mask, primarily polypropylene, which are not easily decomposed and will remain in the environment for decades. It could take centuries for them to turn into smaller and smaller microplastics and nanoplastics.

As the mask wastes may contribute to plastic pollution, it may also accumulate and release harmful chemical and biological substances such as bisphenol A (BPA), which may have a carcinogenic effect, as well as heavy metals and disease-causing microbes. This is becoming a significant problem, particularly in countries with poor waste management. The race to find a sustainable solution for public health safety measures is urgent to reduce the global plastic problem.
