Have you found plastic pellets? Share the location
Since 2018, at Good Karma we have been studying and denouncing the pollution caused by plastic pellets in the environment, and more specifically, in the Mediterranean and the coast of Tarragona. Now is your chance to get involved and help us identify other locations around the country affected by this type of pollution. These points will be registered in the following interactive map and each of them will be evaluated for further research. Do citizen science!
HOW TO DO IT:
RELLENA EL FORMULARIO:
¡IMPORTANTE!: te recordamos que para que los datos sean válidos es necesario que la fecha sea del día que se detecta la contaminación y que la foto sea de los pellets tal y como los has encontrado colocando un objeto de referencia al lado (bolígrafo, moneda, billete, regla, etc). También que las coordenadas tengan un formato correcto y que hagas una estimación del área que ves afectada por pellets de plástico (una zancada no muy larga equivale a 1 metro).
