On the panel that says, "Part of a series on Pollution" the word "pollution" doesn't appear unless you highlight it, but this may be just a problem for me. Spiileer (talk) 20:33, 26 September 2025 (UTC)Reply

@Spiileer. I have the same problem, but only if I look at the article in this article. People at WP:village pump (technical) might be able to help us. —Femke 🐦 (talk) 06:38, 27 September 2025 (UTC)Reply

About plastic ~2026-49326-6 (talk) 06:15, 23 January 2026 (UTC)Reply

There are two paragraphs in the article on this. In gerenal, plastic takes ages to decompose, so that it accumulates in the environment. Did you want to suggest a change to the article? —Femke 🐦 (talk) 08:14, 23 January 2026 (UTC)Reply

I'm requesting an update to Citation #108 (John Tarantino, "Environmental Issues").

The original domain for "theenvironmentalblog.org" expired on 2 March 2016 (verified via Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/20160329114845/http://theenvironmentalblog.org/?reqp=1&reqr=). Since then, the site has been repurposed as a commercial link farm selling paid guest posts (e.g., listicles for fuel suppliers).

Per Wikipedia:Link rot policy, please set the URL status to "usurped" to suppress the live spam link while maintaining the original archived information.
