Summary

This report reviews Belgium's current research on marine litter and microplastics, mapping out what scientists already know and where gaps remain. It doesn't test health effects directly, but it highlights that understanding plastic pollution in our oceans is a necessary first step toward figuring out how these tiny plastic particles might affect the food we eat and our overall health.
