Abstract

Plastics are a source of pollution throughout their full life cycle, releasing hazardous chemicals, macroplastics, micro- and nanoplastics (MNPs), and greenhouse gases (GHG) to the entire ecosphere. This policy brief focuses on the direct and indirect human health hazards associated with all forms of plastic pollution across the plastics life cycle.
