New Report Out Now: The Great Nurdle Hunt 2013-2023.
Results from the Great Nurdle Hunt (www.nurdlehunt.org.uk) recently published by environmental charity Fidra reveal 86% of sites surveyed between 2013 and 2023 were polluted with plastic pellets called nurdles. Nearly all plastic products are made from nurdles and they are being mishandled and spilled during production, transport and conversion into plastic products. Since 2013 20,457 volunteers have organised 7144 nurdle hunts heading to beaches, riverbanks and lakes to look for nurdles in 73 countries worldwide from Kenya to Canada.
