Recent Trends to Address Microplastic Waste at the Global Level
Summary
This review addresses global trends in microplastic waste management, covering regulatory approaches, remediation technologies, and emerging solutions for reducing the persistence of microplastics across marine and terrestrial ecosystems. Because microplastics are nonbiodegradable and persist for hundreds to thousands of years, scaling up effective removal and prevention strategies is urgent for protecting long-term ecosystem and human health.
Microplastics are a nuisance to marine and terrestrial ecosystems. These tiny particles of plastic can also originate from the degeneration of large plastic units. Being nonbiodegradable, they have the ability to stay for hundreds and thousands of years. They even...
