Plastic Pollution from River to Ocean: A Comprehensive Review in Indian Scenario
Abstract: Plastic represents a substantial environmental hazard, contributing to contamination of terrestrial,aquatic, and atmospheric ecosystems. This category comprises a diverse range of polymers. In the formof microplastics and nanoplastics, it can induce toxicity in water bodies. Plastic debris not onlyphysically pollutes freshwater, but also chemically, undergoing changes over time due to hydroclimaticeffects. Rivers serve as conduits, transporting plastics from minor tributaries to major rivers andultimately into the ocean, endangering marine life. …
