It takes readers on a journey that begins on the beaches of Galicia, where the beach litter formed the starting point for an exhibition that combines art and science to alert the audience to the urgent need for action. The journey culminates with a short “plastic story”, which reveals a disturbing vision of the future significance of plastics for humans, and an example of how comics can deliver information to a younger audience. Along the way there is plenty of fascinating science, such as insights into the impacts of plastics and microplastics; the new marine ecosystem, known as the “plastisphere”; and the current status of the oceans, from the Arctic to the Mediterranean. The book also explores the historical developments; sustainable solutions, including the use of circular economy methodologies; and protective measures, like those being tried in China and the Far East. Lastly, it describes the role played by rivers as transport vectors for plastic, with sp | 出版日期 | Book 2020 | 关键词 | marine plastic litter; plastic pollution; microplastic in marine ecosystem; sustainable solutions to pl | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-38945-1 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-38947-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-38945-1 | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2020 |
