Plastic pollution has become one of the most pressing environmental challenges and has received commensurate widespread attention. Although it is a top priority for policymakers and scientists alike, the knowledge required to guide decisions, implement mitigation actions, and assess their outcomes remains inadequate. We argue that an integrated, global monitoring system for plastic pollution is needed to provide comprehensive, harmonized data for environmental, societal, and economic assessments. The initial focus on marine ecosystems has been expanded here to include atmospheric transport and terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems. An earth-system-level plastic observation system is proposed as a hub for collecting and assessing the scale and impacts of plastic pollution across a wide array of particle sizes and ecosystems including air, land, water, and biota and to monitor progress toward ameliorating this problem. The proposed observation system strives to integrate new information and to identify pollution hotspots (i.e., production facilities, cities, roads, ports, etc.) and expands monitoring from marine environments to encompass all ecosystem types. Eventually, such a system will deliver knowledge to support public policy and corporate contributions to the relevant United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

全球塑料污染观察系统以帮助政策
塑料污染已成为最紧迫的环境挑战之一，并受到了相应的广泛关注。尽管它是政策制定者和科学家的重中之重，但指导决策、实施缓解行动和评估其结果所需的知识仍然不足。我们认为，需要一个综合的全球塑料污染监测系统，为环境、社会和经济评估提供全面、协调的数据。最初对海洋生态系统的关注已扩大到包括大气运输以及陆地和淡水生态系统。提出了一个地球系统级塑料观测系统，作为收集和评估塑料污染规模和影响的枢纽，涵盖各种颗粒大小和生态系统，包括空气、土地、水和生物群，并监测改善这一问题的进展。拟议的观测系统努力整合新信息并识别污染热点（即生产设施、城市、道路、港口等），并将海洋环境监测扩展到所有生态系统类型。最终，这样的系统将提供知识，以支持公共政策和企业对相关联合国 (UN) 可持续发展目标 (SDG) 的贡献。
