On January 27, 2024, Sea Shepherd Spain joined the event organized by GoodKarma Projects "Sampling of Medpellets pellets, 5 years studying the pollution of La Pineda beach in Tarragona", which addresses the problem of pellets found on Tarragona beach due to the proximity of the Petrochemical Complex.
In two hours, we sampled 226,220 pellets—more than 2,827.5 pellets per square meter. The results were submitted to the Public Administration for updated information on the state of coastal pollution. The authorities accepted the results and initiated legal proceedings. Thus, we were witnessing an environmental victory.
