Not on viewIn April 2017 the New York Times reported that trillions of plastic bits were making their way to the Arctic, this in additional to the plastics and other garbage swirling slowly in the North Pacific in the so-called Trash Vortex. A new area of study at Kansas State University, natural resources and environmental sciences, allows students from many majors to think about these phenomena and other examples of how human waste impacts the earth.
