Every year Fidra organises a worldwide hunt for nurdles, or plastic production pellets. This year’s #GreatGlobalNurdleHunt kicks off in September and runs for the whole month.

How can you help?

Using our guide, we challenge you to go out and find these tiny plastic pellets in your neighbourhoods. You’d be surprised how easy they are to spot once you know where and what you are looking for!

Take a photo and post it online during the month of September using #GreatGlobalNurdleHunt. Don’t forget to tell us where you are (city + country) and tag us @SeasAtRisk, @greatnurdler and @FidraTweets.

Join fellow pellet hunters and log your findings in the Great Nurdle Map.

The guide is available in EnglishFrench, Spanish, Italian, German and Portuguese.
