Zimbali Beach Cleanup

A superstorm caused a Mediterranean Shipping Company vessel to lose cargo in October of 2017 – the cargo lost contained an incalculable amount of nurdles, tiny pieces of plastic which today still plague South African beaches.

Dozens of people took to cleaning up Zimbali beach last week.  Organised by Zimbali residents Kate Lovemore-Baker, Bronwyn Karlberg and Milan Comley, the initiative saw special input and help from Zimbali’s environmentalist, Brendon Smith as the group of beach cleaners also set about hunting for nurdles.
