N2 - Our first collection of Frontiers articles highlighted the broad diversity of
environmental problems caused by the mismanagement of plastics in different
settings, and the many challenges that scientists, managers, regulators and
stakeholders face in addressing these problems (Filella et al., 2021). This, second
series essentially deals with plastics in soils and the degradation of plastic (and in
particular, expanded polystyrene). Improving the circularity and management of
plastics in soils requires an understanding of their presence, impacts and degradation
pathways.
