06.01.2022 We all have days like these
04.01.2022 HAPPY VOLUNTEER WEEK One of our most recent and heartwarming projects was all the Boomerang Bags we are able to make, and donate, to our frontline health workers - nurses and doctors at Bunbury Hospital specifically. Together with Boomerang Bags Dalyellup we donated approximately 130 Boomerang Bags during lockdown. These bags are being used so that scrubs can be placed straight into a bag; and both the bag and scrubs can be washed altogether in the sewing machine. Each wo...rker was given 2 bags for this purpose. As a result, we barely have a dozen bags left in stock! So thats our focus again at the moment. We still welcome those keen to make bunting, joey pouches, reusable produce bags or any other project utilising upcycled fabric. THANKS EVERYONE! #boomerangbags #frontlinehealthworkers #loveyourwork #sewingarmy #sewfromhome #lockdownvolunteering #locals #lovebunbury #bungeo

01.01.2022 Weve all been there...
01.01.2022 Microplastic and nanoplastic particles have been discovered in human organs for the first time. The researchers found the tiny plastic pieces in all 47 samples of lungs, liver, spleen and kidneys they examined. Microplastic pollution has affected the entire planet, from Arctic snow and Alpine soils to the deepest oceans. The particles can harbour toxic chemicals and harmful microbes and are known to harm some marine creatures. People are also known to consume them via food a...nd water, and to breathe them, But the potential impact on human health is not yet known. The scientists obtained the organ samples from a tissue bank established to study neurodegenerative diseases. The analytical method they developed allowed them to identify dozens of types of plastic, including the polyethylene terephthalate (PET) used in plastic drinks bottles and the polyethylene used in plastic bags. They also found the chemical bisphenol A (BPA) in all 47 samples. The US Environmental Protection Agency is concerned about BPA because it is a reproductive, developmental and systemic toxicant in animal studies. The researchers examined lung, liver, spleen and kidney tissue as these organs are likely to be exposed to microplastics or collect them. Their results are being presented at a meeting of American Chemical Society on Monday, and have not yet been through the peer review process. https://www.theguardian.com//microplastic-particles-discov
