More about the book
The book explores the impact of biodegradable plastics on soil and sediment health, focusing on the "priming effect," where added carbon inputs enhance microbial respiration, leading to the degradation of existing organic matter. This process results in increased CO2 emissions, potentially undermining the ability of soils and sediments to sequester carbon. By examining the implications of plastic pollution, the work aims to assess how these materials may diminish the natural capacity of these ecosystems to combat climate change.
