Abstract

Micro plastics (MP) pose a significant environmental challenge, categorized into primary (e.g., cosmetic particles) and secondary (resulting from plastic waste degradation).They pervade river beds, Arctic ice, soil, and even drinking water, entering the human food chain. Industries and improper disposal contribute to primary and secondary MP. While aquatic life risks are known, the full extent is unclear. Plasticizers in MPPs affect marine life and potentially enter thehuman body. Various filters, like aluminum oxide, aid MP analysis.Genetic damage to marine organisms from micro plastics, absorbing harmful substances, is documented. Environmental pollution stems from resource exploitation, urbanization, and population growth. Management interventions are crucial. Human interventions, altering rivers and urbanization, impact water qualityand MP distribution. In conclusion, addressing micro plastic pollution is imperative for environmental and human well-being. Keywords: Nalas; Micro plastics; contamination control method; Pollution.
