    I.RESEARCH TITLE

    EXPLORING THE EFFECTS AND SOLUTIONS ON PLASTIC POLLUTION

    II.SHORT INTRODUCTION

    Plastic pollution is one of the biggest problems for our environment. It happens because we
    make and use too much plastic, which often ends up as litter. This is harmful to nature, animals, and
    people. We chose this problem because we want to learn more about why plastic pollution happens and
    how we can reduce the causes of plastic pollution. Our goal is to help everyone understand the issue
    and find better ways to deal with plastic waste. In this research, we will look at why plastic pollution is a
    problem, what bad things it does, and how we can make things better.

    III. STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

    1. How does plastic pollution harm the ecosystems?


    2. What are the primary sources of plastic pollution in our environment?
    3. What practical and effective solution exists to reduce plastic pollution?

    IV. DATA PRESENTATION

    Plastic pollution has been a topic of rising environmental concern in recent years. Model
    estimates show that between 0.8 and 30 million metric tonnes of plastic wastes enter the aquatic
    environment annually around the globe (Borrelle et al., 2020)

    The majority of plastic pollution is generated on land and transported through rivers to the
    marine environment (Pawar et al., 2016)

    Plastic pollution can have adverse effects in all three of these systems, which include the
    reduction of livelihoods of those dependent on ecosystem health, fishing, and tourism, contamination of
    seafood with micro plastics with implications for food safety and human health, property damage, and
    an increased risk of floods in urban areas (Gall and Thompson, 2015)
    Plastic pollution has become one of the most pressing environmental issues as the capacity of
    the globe to handle the rapidly increasing output of disposable plastic goods gets overburdened. Plastic
    pollution is especially obvious in underdeveloped Asian and African nations when garbage collection
    services are either inadequate or nonexistent. However, collecting used plastics effectively is a problem
    in the developed world as well, especially in countries with poor recycling rates. (Laura, 2019)

    The ecosystem deteriorates as a result of materials whose production and destruction are out
    of balance. One material that significantly endangers the environment is plastic. Plastic is generated in
    enormous quantities and released into the environment, where it takes a long time to decompose
    organically. In this essay, we discuss how to organize a sizable body of material that has been written
    about how to handle waste plastics, which is currently the most difficult problem facing society. (IIyas
    ahmad, et al. 2018)

    V.CONCLUSION:

    Plastic pollution harms ecosystems in various ways, releasing harmful chemicals that contaminate soil
    and water and causing animals to become trapped in plastic items. We need to stop plastic pollution to
    keep our environment safe. Plastic pollution comes from one-time use of plastics, littering, not recycling
    properly, tiny plastic particles, and plastic packaging. We need to deal with these sources of plastic
    pollution. To stop plastic pollution, we can use things like reusable bags and bottles, follow recycling
    rules, support laws against single-use plastics, and join a clean-up drive. We can also apply the 3 R's to
    recycle plastic and use it again. These are easy and good ways to help our environment.
