Norwegian Soils and Waters Contain Mesophilic, Plastic-Degrading Bacteria
Plastic pollution has become one of the most critical environmental issues, as rapidly increasing production, compounded by persistence of plastic wastes in the environment, are outpacing efforts to keep ecosystems plastic-free. A switch to plastics more amenable to microbial attack is one of severa...
