Every few years, the tires on your car wear thin and need to be replaced.
But where does that lost tire material go?
The answer, unfortunately, is often waterways,
where the tiny microplastic particles from the tires’ synthetic rubber carry several chemicals that can transfer into fish, crabs and perhaps even the people who eat them.
Millions of metric tons of plastic waste enter the world’s oceans every year.
In recent times, tire wear particles have been found t…

One of the biggest microplastic pollution sources revealed – and it’s not straws or bags

He also answered questions about the rifts in his coalition regarding antisemitism;
presidential power and the judiciary;
his own health;
whether international law applies to him;
and many other topics

An Oval Office Viewing
During an interview with our reporters, President Trump discussed a video of an ICE agent fatally shooting a woman in Minneapolis.

What we witnessed was not journalism but the choreography of propaganda.
CBS, in particular, offered thirty uninterrupted minutes of state-sanctioned fantasy,
anchored by a fawning interview with Secretary of War Pete Hegseth,
a man implicated in the killing of more than one hundred people at sea without evidence, accountability, or due process.
Rather than interrogating power, the networks shifted seamlessly into spectacle.
At no point did either network rais…
