Summary:"As plastic pollution emerges as an environmental challenge it carries significant societal and ecological ramifications. The increased presence of plastics in our ecosystem disrupts natural habitats, endangers wildlife, and contributes to essential water and soil resource degradation. Beyond its environmental impact, plastic pollution increases social issues, often affecting marginalized communities dealing with waste management crises. This crisis highlights the need for effective policies and innovative solutions while demanding broader reflection on consumer behaviors, corporate responsibility, and sustainable practices. As societies deal with plastic pollution, understanding its effects is crucial for fostering a healthier planet and equitable society. Societal and Environmental Ramifications of Plastic Pollution explores the impact of plastic pollutants on society and the environment. It examines the ramifications of pollution, including climate change, waste management, and plant stress. This book covers topics such as nanotechnology, pollutions, and wastewater treatment, and is useful resource for biologists, environmental scientists, climatologists, sociologists, computer engineers, academicians, and researchers."--
