Summary

This perspective highlights that microplastic pollution is not limited to the oceans but is also widespread in freshwater systems and on land. Researchers argue that the field needs to shift from simply documenting where microplastics are found to understanding their sources, transport pathways, and ecological impacts across all environments. The study calls for a more integrated approach to microplastic research that connects marine, freshwater, and terrestrial contamination.

Study Type Environmental

Microplastics are ubiquitous not just in the ocean but also on land and in freshwater systems
