2023
Fabiana Corami, Beatrice Rosso

Summary

Researchers reviewed the distribution, abundance, and ecological risks of microplastics across environmental matrices, documenting how rapidly expanding global plastic production has driven contamination into terrestrial, aquatic, and atmospheric systems with growing threats to biota and human health.

Plastic debris is ubiquitous in the environment resulting in potential threats to ecosystems, biota, or even human health. With global production and rapid expansion, the amount of anthropogenic plastic litter in all environmental matrices has increased dramatically...
