The ITRC Microplastics Team published their Online Guidance Document in February 2023, geared toward an audience with reasonable scientific understanding, but not microplastic-specific knowledge. The guidance provides information on microplastics and the state of applied science without diving deep into the scientific literature. Online training was offered starting in March 2023.
In 2023, the Microplastics Team continued their work with a new focus, developing a toolkit to provide resources for environmental professionals to use in communicating microplastic issues to members of the public.
