Summary

This review examines bioplastics and other sustainable alternatives to conventional plastics as strategies for reducing microplastic accumulation across environmental compartments. Shifting away from petroleum-based plastics is essential because most microplastic pollution originates from the slow breakdown of conventional plastics that persist in the environment for centuries.

The widespread presence of MPs in the environment has raised concerns and encouraged research. Multiple studies have identified MPs across various environmental compartments. There is an increasing global concern regarding the environmental impact and accumulation...
