The speakers welcome questions about their presentations and can be contacted at the address that they provide on their video. If you are unable to find it in the presentation please contact us at info@gnhgreenfund.org I would suggest that you put Microplastics and Public Health in the subject line of your email to the speakers so that they know what the email is about.
