PLASTIC Episode 2 - The first true plastic

It was a good video, and the way you were talking it felt like interactive session ...

I learned things today. And the blog post about rubber vs plastic was a great read. I love your educational style Joh.

I loved your video. I became completely entertained and well informed. Thank you! Keep it coming....

Wow, the Class 509 series is fantastic. I found the videos through a kind of round-about process. I heard Alan Alda's interview on NPR about science communication. I'm a PhD student so science communication resonated with me (Grandma: What do you do again?). In going through his site I learned about the Flame Challenge and the award you won. That is fantastic! You are a great communicator! I have sent your videos to some of my science-teacher friends. I hope they enjoy this as much as I did!

Thank you for your lovely feedback! If you hang around there's a new series starting soon that I reckon you and your science-teacher friends will LOVE. Especially if they're primary school teachers :)

Here is a recent article on some of unforeseen problems with plastic microfibers that I thought you might find interesting: www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2017/09/19/551261222/guess-whats-showing-up-in-our-shellfish-one-word-plastics . Also you mentioned another series, did I miss it?

[@JohannaHowes]

I will definitely check that out! Thanks Kevin. And no you haven't missed it - I'm actually filming and editing it right now! Work and life has sadly got in the way a bit over the last few months but I'm getting back into making videos - yay! Should be starting up in a few weeks I think.
