Environmental contamination by microplastics is now considered an emerging threat to biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. Soil ecosystems, particularly agricultural land, have been recognized as a major sink of microplastics, but the impacts on soil ecosystems (e.g., above below ground) remain largely unknown. In this study, different types [biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA)], conventional high-density polyethylene (HDPE), microplastic clothing fibers were added containing endogeic Aporrectodea rosea (rosy-tipped earthworm) planted with Lolium perenne (perennial ryegrass) assess biophysical response in mesocosm experiment. When exposed or PLA fewer seeds germinated. There was also reduction shoot height PLA. The biomass A. HDPE significantly reduced compared control samples. Furthermore, present there decrease pH. size distribution water-stable aggregates altered when present, suggesting potential alterations stability. This study provides evidence that manufactured PLA, synthetic can affect development L. perenne, health basic, crucial properties, further

Abstract Society has become increasingly reliant on plastics since commercial production began in about 1950. Their versatility, stability, light weight, and low costs have fueled global demand. Most are initially used discarded land. Nonetheless, the amount of microplastics some oceanic compartments is predicted to double by 2030. To solve this problem, we must understand plastic composition, physical forms, uses, transport, fragmentation into (and nanoplastics). Plastic debris/microplastics arise from land disposal, wastewater treatment, tire wear, paint failure, textile washing, at‐sea losses. Riverine atmospheric storm water, disasters facilitate releases. In surface waters plastics/microplastics weather, biofoul, aggregate, sink, ingested organisms redistributed currents. Ocean sediments likely ultimate destination. Plastics release additives, concentrate environmental contaminants, serve as substrates for biofilms, including exotic pathogenic species. Microplastic abundance increases fragment size decreases, does proportion capable ingesting them. Particles <20 μm may penetrate cell membranes, exacerbating risks. Exposure can compromise feeding, metabolic processes, reproduction, behavior. But more investigation required draw definitive conclusions. Human ingestion contaminated seafood water a concern. Microplastics indoors present yet uncharacterized risks, magnified time spend inside (>90%) polymeric products therein. Scientific challenges include improving microplastic sampling characterization approaches, understanding long‐term behavior, additive bioavailability, organismal ecosystem health Solutions globally based pollution prevention, developing degradable polymers reducing consumption/expanding reuse.

Microplastics are emerging contaminants and their presence in water soil ecosystems has recently drawn considerable attention because they pose a great threat to entire ecosystems. Recent researches have focused on the detection, occurrence, characterization, toxicology of microplastics marine freshwater ecosystems; however, our understanding ecological effects is still limited compared with that aquatic Here, we compiled literature, studying sources, migration soil, negative impacts health function, trophic transfer food chains, corresponding adverse organisms order address potential human risks caused by soil. This review aims gaps knowledge, shed light propose future studies microplastic pollution resultant ecotoxicity. Furthermore, this limiting establishing management remediation measures mitigate posed pollution.
