An Irish teenager is the 2019 winner of the Google Science Fair. Fionn Ferreira, from Ballydehob, won $50,000 for his new method of extracting microplastics from water. His combination of magnets and ferrofluids, made with oil and magnetic powder, can remove tiny plastic fibers from waterways and oceans. I hope to see his method used globally!
