Tens of trillions of toxic plastic pellets—nurdles—are flooding South Carolina’s rivers, with volunteers uncovering millions near protected areas. These pellets absorb harmful chemicals, entering fish and ultimately our food supply. Environmental groups are now suing companies blamed for massive spills, including a Gaston plant where thousands of pellets have been found downstream despite claims of compliance. Similar lawsuits are brewing in Charleston, where over 25,000 nurdles have been collected since 2021. With self-regulation failing, these legal actions aim to hold polluters accountable and safeguard public health from this invisible plastic crisis.
