Plastics are quite commonplace in today’s world. Consequently, plastic waste is an environmental menace that is increasing at an exponential rate. The negative impact of plastic waste on global social-ecological systems is far-reaching and seems irreversible. The dispersal of micro- and nano-plastics into rivers, oceans, and soil environments further aggravates this issue. Retrieving these plastics is currently an impossible task. Directly or indirectly, these microscopic plastic particles impact the life around them.
