“…Community participation fosters a sense of ownership and responsibility for environmental stewardship, leading to more successful outcomes in restoring ecosystems affected by microplastic pollution. Furthermore, highlighting examples of successful community-led restoration projects and partnerships can inspire and guide similar initiatives in other regions or contexts [116,117]. Integrating restoration into this larger framework ensures that the restoration process aligns with the principle of sustainability and mitigates the risk of future microplastic pollution.…”

Microplastics (MPs), microscopic particles originating from plastic products, have emerged as a persistent environmental challenge, posing threats to both ecosystems and human health. Their omnipresence, extending from the highest mountains to the deepest oceans and infiltrating the bodies of humans and animals, requires urgent attention. In the face of escalating annual plastic production and inefficient waste management, where 79% of plastic production ends up in landfill sites or enters the environment, MPs multiply as its consequence. This emphasizes the urgent need for a comprehensive global framework that transcends borders to systematically address and control the growth of MPs. In response, our research conducts an in-depth investigation and proposes a seven-step strategy, providing a global perspective for mitigating microplastic pollution. The proposed approach begins with initial research steps and closes in predicting the remediation of areas impacted by microplastic pollution.
