It's Global Recycling Day and we have a story to tell!: mailchi.mp/plasticbank.com/i… @PlasticBank our group @EcolectivosGT is building community efforts to respond to the growing plastic crisis in rural mountain communities in Guatemala. Here a plastic water jug is repurposed.

@esaikawa, Amos Tai, and I curated a research topic on "Agriculture and Food Supply Challenges in a Changing Climate", and just published our Editorial. We hope it could spark more convos to foster a better food system. frontiersin.org/articles/10.…
So excited that my former undergraduate student Michelle Bardales’ paper is featured here! #plasticpollution is serious and we need to reduce #plastic burning in #Guatemala and other parts of the world! @Lisa_MThompson
Guatemalan rural households burn more plastics than urban households due to a lack of waste collection services. ~24% of PM comes from this source.
@esaikawa et al explore this in #ESATMOS. The work is #OpenAccess and can be read in full now ➡ bit.ly/3VP6RND
Please read this article about Ms. Louana Joseph on @CNN. I met her at the park in the Westside and she became our first study participant to assess children's exposure to heavy metals in #Atlanta. You see she has our study flyers in her hands. cnn.com/2022/11/30/health/af… 1/3
When we visited her home, she told me about her mold issues and we witnessed the problem. Louana and her adorable children - MJ and Marlie - need their home and belongings back. Please help her at this gofundme site, if you can: gofund.me/d924fc85 2/3
And to any Westside of Atlanta residents with children between 6 months and 6 years old, who are interested in participating our study, please check out our website and fill out the sign up form here: saikawalab.com/cechs 3/3

Congrats Robiul. Chemistry of PM2.5 & PM10 at 3 sites, urban-rural gradient, Kathmandu, winter, air quality standards greatly exceeded, major sources of PM are DUST, and combustion of fossil fuels, garbage, and biomass. @ProfPeteD @esaikawa @arnicopanday

Congrats @BenWerden. AMS data from 3 sites, urban-rural gradient, Kathmandu, winter, air quality standards greatly exceeded, major sources of PM1 by PMF are combustion of fossil fuels, garbage, and biomass. @ProfPeteD @esaikawa @arnicopanday @AerodyneRes pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…
New paper in @EnvSciRSC! So super proud of Michelle Bardales, who's a graduate of @emorycollege & the first author of this paper. We found that 23.6% of PM2.5 & 2.4% of CO2 emissions in Guatemala may not be accounted for by excluding open plastic burning. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/arti…
The co-authors include the ECOLECTIVOS team @Lisa_MThompson, John P. McCracken, Mayari Hengstermann, and Alexander Ramirez! Thank you to all the study participants in Jalapa, Guatemala! And thank you to the funders @emoryghi @NIEHS
