Here is a free access link to my paper "The environmental release and ecosystem risks of illicit drugs during Glastonbury Festival"
#Glastonbury #usethetoilets authors.elsevier.com/a/1dqAy…
My research has made it the BBC news trending articles. Thanks to @christiandunn and everyone at @BangorUni for their help. Big shout-out to Dr Daniel Chaplin from @CEB_Bangor for his expertise on this project.

@aberg_dan:“release of environmentally damaging levels of illicit drugs into Whitelake River during the period of Glastonbury Festival suggests an underreported potential source of environmental contamination from greenfield festival sites.”

Our paper describing an affordable method for quantifying waterborne #microplastics has been published. Great team involving @BangorSNS students from @BangorUni; @SalfordUni; @AngliaRuskin & @friends_earth!
Other groups (like schools) can do this easily!

Very positive meeting between @andyscargill & myself, and representatives of @EnvAgencyNW & @Go_CheshireWest about plans for the "Chester Wetland Centre" in the @CountessPark!! (Thanks to @richardbeacham for organising!)
Long way to go but huge step forward!

Fantastic @BangorUni students & graduates talking about #plasticpollution and the work of @BangorWetlands at a very busy @festdiscovery!
(May have also sneaked in some @sascampaigns & @friends_earth information!!)

Wouldn't have been able to do the recent @friends_earth microplastic work without my group of MScRes students in @BangorWetlands Group. They deserve full recognition! @GoodyGoddy1 @FearsExperience @aberg_dan @BangorGlider @LauraNunnerley and @BangorChemistry's Ollie Armstrong!
"Postgraduate students were instrumental in designing and conducting this entire project," says @christiandunn
'Research conducted by students at Bangor University, working with #FriendsOfTheEarth, has attracted global media attention.'

We have no consistent methodology of measuring microplastics in the U.K. - @EnvAgency are going to work on a standard... @christiandunn you might be interested in this after your fantastic work recently checking out U.K. rivers with @friends_earth #IGPlastics @InsideGovt – at Paddington, London

For next week's talk, we invite post-grad researchers @GoodyGoddy1 & @FearsExperience to talk about their research involving the identification of #microplastics in water samples through the use of Fluorescence Microscopy.

Next week, we invite Dr William Mitsch @orwrp to talk to us about his research in ‘Wetlaculture’.
Wetlaculture is the process of flipping lands between wetlands and farmlands to recycle its nutrients, and prevent harmful runoffs.

Tonight is the night, where @aberg_dan will be doing Drugs in Wetlands!
Come join him at 1900, in Brambell C1.
Disclaimer: He’s *not* actually doing drugs in wetlands. He will just talking about the impact of drug components in #wetland ecosystems.
Hello all.
Due to a few issues, @aberg_dan will present his talk in drugged #wetland systems next week. However, feel free to join us in The Cove (Opp Brambell) for a quick catch-up and a few. We’ll be there from 1900. See you there!

At @BangorUni we have such keen and dedicated wetland science students in the @BangorWetlands they even make wetland science memes! Here we have one explaining how peat sequesters carbon through the enzymic latch mechanism!

What do #wetlands have to do with drugs in the water systems?!
#Well loads, according to next week’s speaker and @BangorWetSoc’s chair, @aberg_dan.

Proud wetland student @aberg_dan presenting his work on removal of pharmaceutical drugs using constructed treatment wetlands. Fascinating talk on a little known application of #wetlands @christiandunn @WetlandsInt @WWTLondon @SWS_org @BangorUni – at Bangor, Wales
The effects of illicit drugs on eels, just one of the surprising topics being discussed by @COESEpostgrads MSc by Research students today...
