Why monitor Microplastics

Regulators in the UK do not currently monitor rivers systematically for microplastics (House of Commons Environmental Audit Committee, 2022).
Legislation e.g. REACH restriction on intentionally added microplastics (EC 1907/2006) explicitly target microplastic pollution.
The ability to monitor microplastic contamination in particular environments or hotspots of concern is one mechanism through which the success of such legislation may be measured.
