Microplastics are persistent, very mobile, and hard to remove from nature. Microplastics are widespread in the world and in the human body, and a cause of growing concerns. Plastic pellets are found in water and soil, including agricultural lands, and harm ecosystems and biodiversity. Plastic pellets are the one of the largest sources of unintentional microplastic pollution.

For the first time, the European Commission proposes measures to prevent microplastic pollution from the unintentional release of plastic pellets.

EU forests are exceptionally diverse, with a large variety of forest types, characteristics and ownership structures.
