Workers collect plastic pellets on the beach - Spain

TRAGSA workers collect plastic pellets on the beach of Aguilar, January 9, 2024, in Muros de Nalón, Asturias (Spain). The Principality of Asturias has activated the level two emergency due to the dumping of plastic pellets on the region's beaches. This situation contrasts with the Galician case, where the Xunta maintains the Camgal anti-pollution plan at level one. The State points out that the Galician Government must raise this level in order to be able to collaborate with resources. Pellets are small plastic balls of less than five millimeters, used to manufacture plastic products. Photo by Jorge Peteiro / Europa Press/ABACAPRESS.COM
