Introducing you to the "Godfather of Microplastics", Professor RICHARD THOMPSON OBE FRS, who first used the term "Microplastic" in the journal Science 20 years ago this year, and who is a scientific lodestar for Pinovo.
Richard's important work and impact in this field has been justly recognised by his inclusion in the TIME 100 Health - follow this link to access the article - https://time.com/6968344/richard-thompson/. And that important work goes on! Richard is now a key player in the ongoing negotiations of the UN Global Plastics Treaty. He is part of the Steering Committee and Coordinator Team of the Scientists' Coalition for an Effective Plastics Treaty - a network of independent scientific and technical experts who provide scientific knowledge to those involved in the negotiations. Follow this link - https://lnkd.in/eTghSggj - to read about an interesting conversation with Richard explaining his journey over the last 20 years, and why his research on Microplastics matters to all of us. We know that Paint is the biggest source of those Microplastic Emissions to the Environment, according to the EU Commission, The Pew Charitable Trusts and EA - Earth Action, because #PaintIsPlastic. We at Pinovo, with our in-house developed and patented Clean Blasting Technology, play our part in stopping those Paint Microplastic Emissions to Protect Ocean Health.
