Plastic Ingestion

Plastic Ingestion is a marine pollution impact construct that specifically denotes the unintentional consumption of synthetic polymer debris by marine birds, distinguishing it from other forms of environmental contaminant exposure through its origin in anthropogenic plastic waste and its physical mode of interaction within avian digestive systems.
