Abstract The current major concerns of mankind with regard to biodiversity, food safety and security, demographic growth, pollution, the energy crisis, ecosystem productivity, environmental protection and environment are only a part of the contemporary concerns that environmental education must say the word. An analysis of the situations that generates global environmental problems highlights the need for an extensive environmental curriculum with studies on human behavior, crisis and disaster management, bioeconomics, psychology of thinking styles, neuroscience, etc. The design of new programs should be directed to proactive behaviors and leadership, to entrepreneurship and innovation, with a direct impact on the ability to find solutions to solve environmental problems.

Microplastic research is currently an exciting trend along with global environmental problems. The purpose of this study is to review the development of microplastic research in ASEAN. The researc uses a systematic review method by searching for the keyword “microplastic” and the name of the ASEAN country on the Google Scholar website, Science Direct, and other research paper provider websites. Papers reviewed in 2018 to August 2021 period were then classified based on the components analyzed. The results showed that based on the research location category, the majority of microplastic research was carried out in Vietnam (12/50 articles). The category of research object focused on marine organisms more than terrestrial organisms, the category of microplastic concentration varied because the microplastic sampling method was not standardized, the category of microplastic form dominated by the form of fiber; commonly found in coastal areas. The socio-economic category is not much related to the circular economy. To conclude, microplastic research still has opportunities, especially from a socio-economic perspective.
