Resumen

Oceanic marine plastic contamination was an increasingly global issue due to increased demand. This has a significant effect not only on marine biodiversity, but also on public safety and numerous infectious diseases found in both aquatic and human species. A huge amount of money was spent worldwide on plastic waste. In the 1940s, plastics development began and is increasing massively. This crucial analysis intends to accomplish goals such as defining plastic materials, origins, detecting aggregation, and validating appropriate techniques to analyze plastic abundance spatio-temporal trends. This further addresses the possible impacts of plastics on marine species, humans, and future chemical emission control strategies together with advice. Plastics are primarily distributed along the coasts and mid-ocean vortex in large amounts. The broad variety of plastics, as eaten by aquatic animals finds their way to the human body through the food chain. Research articles should help learn the origins, deterioration mechanisms, and harmful effects of plastics on both the human body and the ecosystem. Until recently, the science community and politicians have generally ignored plastic waste, but ecological implications, as well as plastic pollution's economic/health effects, have now gained greater global interest.
