Car tire dust is having a deadly effect on salmon in the Pacific Northwest—but could it be harming us too? 6PPD-quinone, a chemical that sheds from tires into stormwater runoff, has been found to cause rapid death in coho salmon within hours of exposure. The substance has also been found in human blood and urine, leading experts to question its long-term health implications on our bodies. As researchers race to find safer tire additives, the ongoing damage to our ecosystem remains a serious issue. Learn more about how car tires are affecting the environment at the link in the bio.

Humans are polluting the earth… corporations are at the front end of the pollution. In the name of almighty progress and profits. They’re so rich, they don’t even know what is going on in the rest of the world. Sad.

Hear me out… instead of cleaner additives to tires, we could just find solutions that don't involve cars. Better public transit, better bicycling systems?

The poison tire left on the road, and then it rains, the poison go with water into creeks and river. That’s just enough to destroy a weak salmon or trout water system 😢
