Indian Teens Win Global Earth Prize for Tamarind Powder That Pulls Microplastics Out of Water
Three Indian teens win the Global Earth Prize with Plas-Stick, a tamarind-seed powder that clumps microplastics in water and can be removed with a magnet, offering a simple, low-cost solution for safer drinking water in shared containers; they plan to scale production to rural communities and this marks India's first Global Earth Prize win.
