Question

What are micro plastics and how do they impact the environment? What can we do to reduce micro plastic pollution?

Answer 1

Answer:

Microplastics are very small pieces of plastic that pollute the environment. Microplastics are not a specific kind of plastic, but rather any type of plastic fragment that is less than 5 mm in length according to the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. There is concern that microplastics could have adverse health effects on humans as they move through the marine food web. Microplastics both absorb and give off chemicals and harmful pollutants. Plastic's ingredients or toxic chemicals absorbed by plastics may build up over time and stay in the environment.
