Fall 2017: Several global news highlight that the microplastics have invaded to our drinking water and even to the sea salt. In the Cycladic islands all kinds of plastics are fragmented into tiny pieces due to sun. Waterfronts that are not used as tourist beaches, contain a lot of plastic materials and other rubbish.
