dc.titlePollution plastique, la biodiversité menacée
dc.typebook
oapen.abstract.otherlanguageAt every stage in their life cycle, plastics release debris, particles and molecules that contaminate terrestrial, aquatic and marine ecosystems. They contribute to three major environmental crises: pollution, loss of biodiversity and climate change. No species has been spared: from the sea turtle to phytoplankton, from wheat to the European hedgehog, from pike to grey heron, they are all affected by this pollution, which is largely invisible because it is mainly made up of micro- and nanoplastics, and is now present in every compartment of the environment. The result of a joint project involving several research bodies and universities, this book looks at the various facets of this now global problem. It draws on the latest scientific advances that have made it possible to better quantify and characterise this pollution, and to study its impact on biodiversity and the functioning of ecosystems - through biomonitoring, the study of sentinel species, ecotoxicology research and other innovative approaches. The authors also propose a regulatory framework, as well as solutions or alternatives for public policy to deal with the challenges posed by this threat. This book is aimed at decision-makers, researchers, students of ecology, biology and environmental sciences, and members of the public who want to gain a better understanding of the many forms plastic pollution takes today and the issues it raises.
