One Health on islands: Tractable ecosystems to explore the nexus between human, animal, terrestrial, and marine health

This study proposes that islands serve as ideal natural laboratories for exploring the interconnections between human, animal, and environmental health under the One Health framework. Researchers argue that islands' discrete populations and well-studied ecosystems make them uniquely suited for understanding how contaminants like microplastics move through interconnected terrestrial and marine environments. The study highlights the potential for island-based research to untangle complex health relationships across biomes.

A One Health perspective of the impacts of microplastics on animal, human and environmental health

This review takes a "One Health" approach to microplastics, examining how they affect animal health, human health, and the environment as interconnected systems. The authors caution that many lab studies use microplastic concentrations far higher than what is found in nature, making their results hard to apply to real-world risk. However, they note that microplastics can indirectly affect human health by disrupting ecosystems and soil processes that support food production and clean water.
