“…Plastik bersifat persisten di lingkungan (Turner et al, 2020) dalam jangka waktu yang sangat lama (Andrady, 2015). Kontaminasi sampah plastik dapat memberikan dampak negatif terhadap biota, ekosistem (Sazli et al, 2023) hingga kesehatan manusia. Keberadaan sampah plastik di lingkungan perairan bersifat letal (Beaumont et al, 2019) terhadap banyak spesies, seperti zooplankton (Setälä et al, 2014), ikan (Foley et al, 2018), burung (Nelms et al, 2018), mamalia laut (Lusher et al, 2015), lobster, kerang (Browne et al, 2008), dan juga penyu (Oehlmann et al, 2019).…”

Paloh District is a coastal area which directly borders to Sarawak (Malaysia) and the Natuna Sea. This area has the potential for marine and coastal resources, such as mangrove ecosystems, coral reefs and turtles, so it has been designated as one of the conservation areas in West Kalimantan. To date, in the management of KKP3K Paloh, there are still many challenges, one of them is plastic waste contamination. Plastic waste is a global and very complex problem, because it can have a negative impact on biota, ecosystems and human health. The results of a report from BKSDA in collaboration with the WWF-Indonesia Foundation, found that 21 young turtles were died on Paloh Beach, West Kalimantan due to plastic waste was found in their digestive tract. Plastic accumulation in the aquatic environment occurs when the rate of input of plastic pollution into an area exceeds the rate of natural removal processes. Therefore, it is needed an action to reduce the amount of plastic waste accumulated in coastal and marine areas. This activity aimed to reduce the amount of plastic waste on Sungai Belacan Beach, Paloh District, West Kalimantan. Apart from that, this activity was an effort to strengthen the management strategy for the Coastal and Small Islands Conservation Area (KKP3K) in Paloh, West Kalimantan. Community Service Activities were carried out at Sungai Belacan Beach. The results found the waste types consisting of plastic bottles, glass bottles, medicine bottles, drink cups/packaging, food and beauty product packaging, stereofoam, plastic bags and ropes, fishermen's fishing gear, and wood. Plastic waste has the highest percentage (95%), then wood waste (3%), and other types of waste (2%).

“…The evaluation of Fulton's body condition, which is conducted by comparing the length and body mass, and the fullness index, which is conducted by quantifying the stomach content, may be useful for assessing a fish's health status. Inflammation has also been reported, together with disturbances in the immune system and the metabolic profile [50,51]. Chronic exposure to microplastics may also be associated with behavioral changes and reductions in energy, growth, fecundity, and reproductive output [51,52].…”

The omnipresence of microfibers in marine environments has raised concerns about their availability to aquatic biota, including commercial fish species. Due to their tiny size and wide distribution, microfibers may be ingested by wild-captured pelagic or benthic fish and farmed species. Humans are exposed via seafood consumption. Despite the fact that research on the impact of microfibers on marine biota is increasing, knowledge on their role in food security and safety is limited. The present review aims to examine the current knowledge about microfiber contamination in commercially relevant fish species, their impact on the marine food chain, and their probable threat to consumer health. The available information suggests that among the marine biota, edible species are also contaminated, but there is an urgent need to standardize data collection methods to assess the extent of microfiber occurrence in seafood. In this context, natural microfibers should also be investigated. A multidisciplinary approach to the microfiber issue that recognizes the interrelationship and connection of environmental health with that of animals and humans should be used, leading to the application of strategies to reduce microfiber pollution through the control of the sources and the development of remediation technologies.
