The global challenge of microplastics—tiny, pervasive fragments of plastic less than five millimeters in size—has emerged as one of the most pressing environmental and public health concerns of the 21st century. This eBook presents a comprehensive examination of microplastics from their origin and pathways into marine, freshwater, terrestrial, and atmospheric systems, to their bioaccumulation and toxicological effects on wildlife and humans. It explores the complex chemistry of plastics and their degradation processes, shedding light on how microplastics have found their way into our food chain, drinking water, and even the human body, raising alarms about long-term health implications. The discussion highlights the remarkable efforts by the international scientific community, intergovernmental organizations, national governments, and civil society in tackling this multifaceted issue. From the cutting-edge research into biodegradable polymers and enzymatic degradation, to international collaborations like GESAMP and Horizon Europe, the global response has grown increasingly sophisticated. Partnerships between academia, government, and industry have resulted in promising innovations in plastic alternatives, waste management practices, and biomedical approaches to mitigating harm caused by microplastic exposure. Despite these advancements, the road ahead remains long and arduous. The persistence of microplastics in the environment, the lag in global policy implementation, and the limited public awareness in some regions all suggest that the challenge is not just scientific, but also behavioral and systemic. This eBook concludes with a forward-looking reflection on the future of microplastics, emphasizing that while scientific and regulatory momentum is accelerating, it must be coupled with societal transformation in how we produce, consume, and manage plastic materials. Ultimately, addressing the microplastics crisis requires more than innovation—it calls for responsibility. Individuals can contribute by reducing single-use plastics, supporting sustainable alternatives, improving recycling behaviors, and advocating for policy change. It is a global problem that demands global solidarity, cross-sector collaboration, and personal commitment. The future of our ecosystems, and perhaps our own well-being, depends on how wisely and urgently we respond to the silent infiltration of microplastics into the fabric of life.
