Outside the Safe Operating Space of the Planetary Boundary for Novel Entities

Linn Persson et al.

Summary: This article suggests that the safe operating space of the planetary boundary for novel entities is exceeded due to the increasing production and releases exceeding the global capacity for assessment and monitoring. Plastic pollution is highlighted as a major concern. The article presents an impact pathway from the production of novel entities to their impacts on Earth system processes and proposes several criteria for control variables. Urgent action is recommended to reduce the harm associated with exceeding the boundary by reducing the production and releases of novel entities.

A comparative investigation of toxicity of three polymer nanoparticles on acorn barnacle (Amphibalanus amphitrite)

Yong Jie Yip et al.

Summary: In this study, the toxicity of polymer nanoparticles, including PMMA, PS, and PVC, on Acorn Barnacle nauplii was investigated. PVC nanoparticles showed significant toxicity, while PMMA and PS nanoparticles did not have adverse effects on the nauplii. Chemical analysis of the polymer powders used to prepare the nanoparticles revealed the presence of low molecular weight oligomers, which may play a role in the observed toxicity.

Transfer of Poly(methyl methacrylate) Nanoparticles from Parents to Offspring and the Protection Mechanism in Two Marine Invertebrates

Yong Jie Yip et al.

Summary: In this study, it was found that ingested nano- and microplastic particles do not necessarily transfer from exposed adults to offspring in all animal species. The results suggest that protective mechanisms preventing transfer of nanoparticles from parents to offspring could differ among animal species and that the choice of the animal model and polymer nanoparticle size selected can significantly impact the outcome of the study.

Rapid Characterization of Macroplastic Input and Leakage in the Ganges River Basin

Kathryn Youngblood et al.

Summary: Efforts to understand macroplastic pollution have predominantly focused on coastal and marine environments, neglecting freshwater, terrestrial, and urban ecosystems. This study investigates the sources of macroplastics in the environment by examining plastic input and leakage. The researchers surveyed litter aggregation pathways in the Ganges River Basin and assessed single-use plastic consumer products. The findings reveal that areas with lower populations have a higher number of littered items per 1,000 people, with plastics and tobacco products being the most commonly recorded items. While most single-use plastic consumer products are manufactured in-country, a significant percentage of brands are owned by international companies.

A rapid review and meta-regression analyses of the toxicological impacts of microplastic exposure in human cells

Evangelos Danopoulos et al.

Summary: This review investigates the thresholds of microplastics (MPs) effects on human cells by synthesizing existing evidence. The study identifies several biological endpoints, such as cytotoxicity, immune response, oxidative stress, and barrier attributes, that are affected by MPs. The sensitivity of cells to MPs varies, with Caco-2 cells being the most susceptible. Additionally, the shape, duration of exposure, and concentration of MPs play a role in determining their effects on cells.

The evolving global plastics policy landscape: An inventory and effectiveness review

Zoie Diana et al.

Summary: Governments worldwide are adopting policies, laws, and ordinances to reduce plastic pollution. However, there is a lack of comprehensive analysis on the content and trends of these policies. This study aims to understand government responses to plastic pollution over time and evaluate the effectiveness of these policies. The findings show that international governments mainly focus on future plans and commitments, while national and subnational governments often use bans. Peer-reviewed literature reports significant reductions in plastic bag consumption after policy adoption.

Voluntary commitments made by the world's largest companies focus on recycling and packaging over other actions to address the plastics crisis

Zoie Diana et al.

Summary: Plastic pollution poses significant challenges to the environment and health, and corporations have made voluntary commitments to address this issue. However, the effectiveness of these commitments remains underexplored. A study found that approximately 72% of companies have made commitments to reduce plastic pollution, but most focus on packaging and general plastics, emphasizing recycling efforts. More efforts beyond plastic recycling are needed to effectively tackle the challenges of plastic pollution.

The abundance and characteristics of microplastics in surface water in the transboundary Ganges River

Imogen E. Napper et al.

Summary: This study investigated the abundance, characteristics, and temporal variation of microplastics in the Ganges river, finding that concentrations varied by season and location, with majority being fibers. The research also estimated the daily release of microplastics from the Ganges into the Bay of Bengal.

Comparison of Genotoxicity and Cytotoxicity of Polyvinyl Chloride and Poly(methyl methacrylate) Nanoparticles on Normal Human Lung Cell Lines

Gomathi Mahadevan et al.

Summary: High concentrations of micro- and nanoparticles of common plastic materials in the environment are having adverse health impacts on living organisms. The synthesized luminescent PVC and PMMA nanoparticles were shown to enter cells through endocytosis, leading to reduced cell viability and other cytotoxic effects. This study provides important insights into the effects of polymer nanoparticles on human health.

More than 1000 rivers account for 80% of global riverine plastic emissions into the ocean

Lourens J. J. Meijer et al.

Summary: Research shows that plastic waste in the marine environment mainly comes from rivers, with a model approach predicting the probability of plastic waste entering the ocean and identifying regions likely to emit plastic into the ocean. It is estimated that over 1000 rivers globally contribute to 80% of plastic waste emissions, with small urban rivers being the most polluting.
