Tackling nurdle pollution

Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Join the Great Nurdle Hunt and help tackle plastic pollution! Nurdles are tiny plastic pellets about the size of a lentil made by the plastic industry and used to make almost all plastic products. These small pieces of plastic are leaking into the environment in huge numbers and washing up on seas, rivers, lakes and land around the world. With the Nurdle Hunt app, you can take part in this global citizen science project and become part of the solution. The Great Nurdle Hunt is an global project encouraging people to find and report nurdles on their local beaches. Your data helps push for action to stop this serious source of microplastic pollution at its source. Each nurdle you record contributes to a global dataset used by scientists, policy makers, and environmental groups. Together, we can call on industry and governments to prevent plastic pellet pollution at the source. Thousands of citizen scientists, beach lovers, and environmentalists around the world are already taking part. Whether you’re visiting a beach once a year or walking it daily your findings matter. Key features: • Log nurdle sightings with date, location, numbers, and photos • Works offline which is perfect for remote beaches • View the global nurdle pollution map • Easily track every nurdle you find with the built in counter • Learn how and where to search
