A significant factor in the wide public interest in plastics is its visibility; present throughout urban and rural environments, washing up on beaches and even visible from space. However, 'invisible' microplastics and nanoplastics are also an issue. With growing plastic production and usage, plastic waste within the environment will continue to increase. This increased input along with its persistence leads to accumulation and increasing ecosystem exposure, with as-yet unknown consequences. This book brings together a collection of chapters written by world-leading experts in environmental plastic pollution inputs, fate, effects and solutions. It provides an accessible overview of the current scientific understanding, future implications and key considerations for the management and mitigation of plastic waste within the world's oceans"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Marine pollution. 650 0 $a Plastics $x Environmental aspects. 650 0 $a Marine resources conservation. 650 0 $a Plastic marine debris. 650 7 $a Marine pollution. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01009826 650 7 $a Marine resources conservation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01009907 650 7 $a Plastic marine debris. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01066494 650 7 $a Plastics $x Environmental aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01066573 700 1 $a Horton, Alice A., $d 1988- $e editor. 776 08 $i Electronic version: $t Plastic pollution in the global ocean. $d Singapore ; Hackensack, NJ : World Scientific Publishing Co.
