This study examines microplastics (MPs) for the first time in soil of Diamond City, Surat (Gujarat, India) terms their abundance, distribution, chemical composition, and ecological risk assessment. A stereomicroscope Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were used to measure physical properties MPs. The outcome showed omnipresence MPs city's soil, with an average abundance 103.2 ± 57.28 particles 100 g–1. Over 90% all made polyethylene (70.19%), polypropylene (17.53%), poly(ethylene terephthalate) (6.92%) polymers. white/transparent-colored having a size about 2–5 mm are predominantly available. principal component analysis (PCA) results indicate that discovered samples mostly represented by fragments fibers, which account 52.90% total variance data set. Additionally, current research, assessment pollution load index (PLI), polymer hazard (PHI), (ERI) studied. PLI values greater than 1 observed, indicating sampling sites polluted Based on type polymer, toxicity found sample, evaluation concluded there is moderate medium associated polluting city soil. greatest PHI value this 239.69 (risk category: medium), while lowest 8.69 low). greenness profile method was assessed using software-based analytical metric (AGREE) tool. developed approach partially green, as shown AGREE score 0.53. present investigations emphasize critical importance taking action metropolitan areas such mitigate MP improve waste management practices greener cleaner ecosystem future. These findings will inspire creation ecofriendly alternatives crucial reducing plastic consumption, safeguarding ecosystems, mitigating MPs' impact quality.
