In this project citizens throughout the Netherlands are empowered to do their own measurements on microplastics in local waters, either by directly measuring microparticles or by locating 'macro' hotspots of plastic waste that degrades into microplastics.
In the water authority district of Delfland this data is used to assess whether changes can be made to the water infastructure to prevent certain hotspots from forming.
