One of my family members told me a story of how their teachers let them play with pieces of asbestos on their school desks lauding it as the material of the future. Here's 14 thousand medical journal articles mentioning microplastic:

I recommend the novel Red Mars by Kim Stanley Robinson. Mars makes Antarctica look like a jungle. "The Red Mars series initiated a shift in science fiction away from the stars and back to our real future in the solar system. Unless a

I did enjoy reading this article. It is good to see some interesting facets of autism. I laud the researchers for caring and working to create new resources and understanding. However, this article may miss the mark so to speak. - "...
