How much should we care about insect-plastic interactions?

Microplastics are a ubiquitous pollutant - and what are they doing to animals such as insects? Post-doc Dr. Jane Allison and PhD candidate Marshall Ritchie from the MacMillan lab at Carleton are working hard to answer this question - which really turned out to be six major questions that will help us form a matrix of how much to 'care' about insects that encounter plastics!
