Abstract

Plastic substances cause hazards to human health and the environment. In natural, terrestrial and freshwater habitats plastic accounts inadvertent contamination of water with small plastic fragments as a consequence of spreading sewage sludge of fragments of plastic and glass contaminating compost prepared from municipal solid waste and of plastic being carried into streams, rivers and ultimately the sea and fresh water with rain water and flood events. The percentage mortality of Tilapia mossambica fingerlings increased with increase in concentration of plastic chemical was dose dependent. This was the results obtained from this study.
