Though national-level policies are modern and well suited for minimizing the impacts of plastic pollution, there is hardly any legislation for containment of microplastic pollution. Our objective is to review and summarize the information about the occurrence, impacts, and management of plastic ...
Plastic pollution is ubiquitous today, withmicroplastic particlesfrom disposable goods found in natural environments throughout the globe, including Antarctica. But how those particles move through and accumulate in the environment is poorly understood. Now aPrinceton Universitystudy has revealed the mechanis...
"But while the huge volume of plastic debris accumulating in the world's oceans and on beaches has received global attention, the amount of plastic accumulating on the seafloor is relatively unknown." The highest rate of pollution discovered was in sediment collected near the rural town of Bichen...
In 2021, the plastic bottles sub-segment will hold the highest market share, owing to increasing awareness about the negative impact of plastic waste on the environment. One of the most widely used consumer products, plastic bottles contribute significantly to the growing problem of plastic waste....

the pollution of the environment that it result in is as well gradually serious.However reusing the recycling plastics has provided a new road of reducing,reusing and recycling of the plastic wastes.Through analyzing the present condition and the technical present condition in our country about the...
2018). Particularly, recent studies validate that the medical face masks are potential sources for micro-plastic pollution in the water systems, and become an environmental threat in the COVID-19 scenario (Aragaw 2020). Thus, the current pandemic caused an increase in the amount of plastic and...
The contribution to plastic pollution made by tyres begins at the design and production phase, through the use of various synthetic fibres such as synthetic rubber, carbon black, and other polymers. Later, during the use phase, degradation and general wear and tear result in the generation of ...
Schwabl said it seemed that the rise in plastic pollution was an almost inevitable bi-product of the way society operates, adding: "It is likely that the amount of plastic contamination may rise further if mankind does not change the current situation." ...
about the recycling and energy recovery potential from these polymer groups. However, sustainable waste management planning, sharing technical know-how among developed and undeveloped countries, conducting campaigns to make aware mass people about the adverse effect of plastic pollution as well as their ...
