3dI just learned so much! Tiny amounts of chemicals made when dust from tires reacts with ozone gets into the water and is devastating for salmon?!? But scientists have leaned into this problem and found a solution. What an incredible story documenting how human carelessness can cause great harm but also how human care can make a difference.
