There isn’t any question that we have polluted our waters and oceans to a state that seems beyond repair. The problems presented by this are not only the deaths of important ecosystems, but also the impact on available drinking waters. Scientists are now proposing that graphene could be used to clean heavy metals and other pollutants out of dirty water. Certain tests have shown that graphene nanobots can clean almost 95% of lead out of wastewater in very short periods of time.
Current industrial activities are polluting our waters more than ever, and it is estimated that by 2050, there will be more plastic in the ocean than fish according to Science Alert.
