Summary

This educational book chapter is part of a Brazilian series designed to raise public awareness about single-use plastics, targeting waste pickers, students, and civil society through pedagogical activities. The volume aims to develop a more critical public understanding of plastic pollution, which is closely tied to microplastic contamination in food, water, and the environment.

Given the importance of broadening the debate on plastic pollution outside the academic environment, to include waste pickers, users of basic sanitation systems, elementary school students, teachers and civil society as a whole, volume IV of the collection brings pedagogical activities with the aim of drawing public attention to the problem and contributing to the construction of a more critical view of the complex issue of plastics. This book is part of "NOSS Repensando o Plástico" collection.
