Beyond surface: Unveiling ecological and economic ramifications of microplastic pollution in the oceans

Water Environment Research, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 96(7)

Опубликована: Июль 1, 2024

Every year, the global production of plastic waste reaches a staggering 400 million metric tons (Mt), precipitating adverse consequences for environment, food safety, and biodiversity as it degrades into microplastics (MPs). The multifaceted nature MP pollution, coupled with its intricate physiological impacts, underscores pressing need comprehensive policies legislative frameworks. Such measures, alongside advancements in technology, hold promise averting ecological catastrophe oceans. Mandated legislation represents pivotal step towards restoring oceanic health securing well-being planet. This work offers an overview policy hurdles, initiatives, prospective strategies addressing pollution due to MP. Additionally, this explores innovative approaches that yield fresh insights combating across various sectors. Emphasizing importance plastics treaty, article potential galvanize collaborative efforts mitigating pollution's deleterious effects on marine ecosystems. Successful implementation such treaty could revolutionize economy, steering circular, less polluting model operating within planetary boundaries. Failure act decisively risks exacerbating scourge attendant repercussions both humanity environment. Central endeavor are formulation, content, execution itself, which demand careful consideration. While recognizing is not panacea, serves mechanism enhancing governance elevating ambitions achieving zero by 2040. Adopting life cycle approach management allows nuanced understanding possible trade-offs between environmental impact economic growth, guiding selection optimal solutions socio-economic implications mind. By embracing strategy integrates measures technological innovations, we can substantially reduce influx litter at sources, safeguarding oceans future generations.

Centennial Records of Microplastics in Lake Cores in Huguangyan Maar Lake, China

Environmental Science & Technology, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 58(25), С. 11140 - 11151

Опубликована: Июнь 13, 2024

Microplastic records from lake cores can reconstruct the plastic pollution history. However, associations between anthropogenic activities and microplastic accumulation are not well understood. Huguangyan Maar Lake (HML) is a deep-enclosed without inlets outlets, where sedimentary environment ideal for preserving stable historical record. (size: 10–500 μm) characteristics in HML core were identified using Laser Direct Infrared Imaging system. The earliest detectable microplastics appeared unit 1955 (1.1 items g–1). abundance ranged n.d. to 615.2 g–1 1955–2019 with an average of 134.9 g–1. declined slightly during 1970s then increased rapidly after China's Reform Opening Up 1978. Sixteen polymer types detectable, polyethylene polypropylene dominating, accounting 23.5 23.3% total abundance, size at 10–100 μm accounted 80%. Socioeconomic factors dominated based on random forest modeling, contributions GDP per capita, plastic-related industry yield, crop yield were, respectively, 13.9, 35.1, 9.3% 1955–2019. contribution further by 1.7% Coarse sediment particles soil erosion exacerbated discharging into sediment.
