Cirino will be on hand to talk about her new book and the dangers that plastic products cause for human and animals.Cirino is a science writer and artist who explores the human connection to nature—wild creatures in particular—in both her writing and art. As a writer, Erica covers stories about wildlife and the environment, most often related to biology, conservation and policy. Her stories appear in Scientific American, VICE, Ars Technica, Audubon, New Scientist, The Atlantic, National Geographic Blog, City Creatures Blog, and other popular science publications. As an artist, Erica possesses a strong command of various disciplines. She is an award-winning photographer and mixed-media artist who combines her artistic finesse with her knowledge of wildlife physiology and ecology to create striking, thoughtful works focused on wildlife and environmental subject matter.One of her major creative inspirations is her role as a licensed wildlife rehabber who has spent several years in the clinical setting. Through her writing, art and wildlife rehabilitation work, Erica hopes to foster human thought, conversation and, perhaps, admiration for the natural world. Currently Erica is in the midst of her “Go and See Tour: Exploring the Pacific Ocean and Beyond in Pursuit of Plastic,” a series of presentations about her global travels and experiences covering the story of plastic pollution, science and solutions.

In a recent study, researchers feared that every human being had microplastics inside their bodies. It's shocking, and the problem is only getting worse. My special guest is Erica Cirino, who's here to discuss her new book Thicker Than Water: The Quest for Solutions to the Plastic Crisis. Get it now on Amazon.About the book:Much of what you've heard about plastic pollution may be wrong. Instead of a great island of trash, the infamous Great Pacific Garbage Patch is made up of manmade debris spread over hundreds of miles of sea—more like a soup than a floating garbage dump. Recycling is more complicated than we were taught: less than nine percent of the plastic we create is reused, and the majority ends up in the ocean. And plastic pollution isn't confined to the open ocean: it's in much of the air we breathe and the food we eat. In Thicker Than Water: The Quest for Solutions to the Plastic Crisis, journalist Erica Cirino brings readers on a globe-hopping journey to meet the scientists and activists telling the real story of the plastic crisis. From the deck of a plastic-hunting sailboat with a disabled engine, to the labs doing cutting-edge research on microplastics and the chemicals we ingest, Cirino paints a full picture of how plastic pollution is threatening wildlife and human health. Thicker Than Water reveals that the plastic crisis is also a tale of environmental injustice, as poorer nations take in a larger share of the world's trash, and manufacturing chemicals threaten predominantly Black and low-income communities. There is some hope on the horizon, with new laws banning single-use items and technological innovations to replace plastic in our lives. But Cirino shows that we can only fix the problem if we face its full scope and begin to repair our throwaway culture. Thicker Than Water is an eloquent call to reexamine the systems churning out waves of plastic waste.
How is plastic pollution related to the climate crisis and fueled by industry? Did you know that plastics are not just in the ocean but in fresh water too? What is the solution to the plastics all around us? Find out this and more through an interview with Erica Cirino, Long Islander and Author of the book Thicker Than Water: The Quest for Solutions to the Plastic Crisis. She describes her voyage to the Pacific Ocean to directly study the “garbage patch” and shares what she learned along the way.

Plastics are everywhere. They're in our shoes and clothes. They're in our cars, our airplanes and our cellphones. They're in our hospitals and schools. They're also in our bodies and in our oceans. The invention of this versatile material radically changed our world. But what if plastic didn't exist? What would our world look like today? This week on Downside Up, Chris Cillizza is joined by Allison Cobb, author “Plastic: An Autobiograpy,” Erica Cirino, author of “Thicker Than Water: The Quest for Solutions to the Plastic Crisis,” and Winnie Lau who studies plastics with the Pew Charitable Trusts, to reimagine the world without plastics.

Plastic is everywhere—it's in our food containers, keyboards, glasses, even our toothbrushes. It's lightweight, versatile, and so cheap that we often forget how much it permeates our lives. A new book dives into the plastic crisis—answering the questions of who is being harmed, who is to blame and what we must do now to create a more just and livable world for everyone. We speak with author Erica Cirino.
Remember Erica from Episode 56? She's back and her book is out now! We had a little chat with her about the process of her book and she did a reading for us from her new book Thicker Than Water: The Quest for Solutions to the Plastic Crisis.

The band is back together! We had Eric and Slater back on as hosts with our special guest Erica Cirino. Erica works as a free lance writer and artist who often covers and shares stories about wildlife and human impacts. She has sailed across the gyres of the Pacific and Atlantic documenting and studying microplastics and plastic debris in our oceans. She is currently working on a book that will cover some of her experiences with her trips and impacts of humans on the planet in regard to plastic debris. We are recording from all over the country via skype - occasionally there are some audio issues due to that.
Plastic pollution seems to be a pretty new issue, right? In the past few years, the topic has been all over the media. But if you explore the history of science, it turns out that the problem really isn’t all that new. Some scientists have been aware of plastic in the ocean for over half a century. So, how was plastic pollution first discovered? And why didn’t we hear about it earlier? In this episode, Anja speaks to scientists who called attention to the problem long before it was widely discussed. What happened back then, and how did we get to where we are now? Ed Carpenter, Steve Rothstein, Elizabeth Venrick, Arne Holmström, Hans van Weenen and Peter Ryan share their stories.
