The tiny plastic particles known as microplastics, which are smaller than 5 millimetres in size, have raised environmental concerns on a global scale result of their wide spread and potential ecological impacts. They generated through various sources can be either primary microplastic or secondary microplastics depending the nature generation. Primary produced intentionally used industries such cosmetics, personal care products, textiles. Synthetic fibers from clothing, like polyester nylon, another significant source washing machines wastewater treatment plants, it enters into environment directly. However, due to forces, large plastic-based products breakdown generate microplastics. All types pose persistence, mobility, accumulate ecosystems. Microplastic also food chain leads health risks for both wildlife humans. Efforts being made globally mitigate generation release Initiatives improve waste management, increase recycling rates, promote sustainable alternatives implemented. Therefore, small that sources, including intentional production larger items. As awareness grows, there is an increasing focus reducing developing solutions tackle this pressing issue. In present chapter, attempt was overview uses, types, understand uptake, prevalence, fate different environments.
