Stormy seas wash up more nurdles
Plettenberg Bay residents have been urged to collect as many “nurdles” as possible, after stormy seas brought these plastic pellets to shore.
Plettenberg Bay-based conservation organisation, Nature’s Valley Trust, (NVT) is urging beachgoers to collect the nurdles when they come across them.
NVT conservation ecologist Brittany Arendse urged beachgoers to place the collected nurdles in separate containers and to indicate on the containers from which beaches the plastic pellets were collected.
These can be dropped off at either the NVT offices – at Lion Roars House off Longships Drive and in Nature’s Valley.
The Plett Tourism office in the town centre has also been designated as a drop-off point.
