How effective are current regulatory policies in limiting microplastic content in baby products, and what new frameworks could be introduced to minimize environmental impacts? Microplastics are small plastic particles with sizes generally less than 5 mm [1]. These can form as a result of the degradation of larger plastic objects, such as plastic bags, bottles, […]
What is meant by Microplastic? When plastic is produced, used or even when it is disposed, it sheds tiny, micro scale particles that are too small to be seen by the naked eye. These tiny particles are called microplastic and they are present everywhere from our food to even crossing the placental barrier between mother […]
The Ever-Present Problem of Plastic Pollution: Not only in Pakistan but all around the globe, the dependence on plastic is reaching an all time high and we realized how great this dependence was when the Great Pacific Garbage Patch was discovered floating in the stretch of water that spans from the West Coast of North […]
Introduction: What is Microplastic Pollution? Microplastic pollution is essentially plastic pollution but it is named differently because it is pollution caused by plastic fragments that are smaller than 0.2 inches or 5mm that break away from larger pieces of plastic. In many cases, they may even leach out from plastics disposed off in landfills and […]
Introduction Microplastic: Microplastics are smaller particles of any kind of plastic. The European Chemicals Agency and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration have defined microplastic as smaller plastic particles ranging in size up to 5mm. These smaller particles make their way into the natural ecosystem through various sources. For detailed information about plastic pollution, read: What […]
