    New Study Finds Microplastics in Sea Breeze

    A study found microplastics in the ocean air along the southwest Atlantic Coast of France. According to the study, the microplastics are released into the atmosphere through "bubble burst ejection." The bubbles carry with them air, salts, bacteria, other particles, and microplastics to the ocean's surface. As ocean waves break into the surface, consequently bursting the bubbles and ejecting it into the winds.
