Abstract: | The increasing accumulation of plastic wastes in the environment has been a threat globally with the developing countries bearing the brunt more. In this review, causes, sources and ecological consequences of land-based plastic pollution in developing countries are highlighted with a view to suggesting green solution to the problem of plastic or polymer pollution in terrestrial environment. Besides, the emerging biocontrol measure and its life-cycle analyses are emphasized along with the opportunities arisen from the green method. Thus, the study concluded that biocontrol method |
