Marine Pollution Bulletin Journal. Plastic waste contaminates all major ecosystems on the planet with concern increasing about its potential impacts on wildlife and human health as smaller and more widespread plastic particles are identified in both the natural (1–4) and built (5–7) environmentFor decades scientists have documented plastic debris in the ocean ()Marine.
