The Baltic Sea is heavily affected by eutrophication resulting from excess nutrient loads for many years. About 50% of all nutrients stem from agriculture in the Baltic sea catchment area. CCB works actively within HELCOM working groups and Heads of Delegation meetings to uphold the agreed goals and....
Most of the water quality problems in the Baltic Sea originate upstream from the thousands of water ways in the catchment area. Some 25% of the nutrient load in the Baltic Sea comes from waste water and upstream sources of pollution....

📣Your voice is important! Through social media we can show together the emergency of the situation for the harbour porpoise in the Baltic Sea.🐬.
⚠Share the main threats to make people aware:
- porpoises die when they are caught in fishing nets and cannot reach the surface to breathe
- overfishing reduces prey availability for harbour porpoises.
- noise from boat traffic or wind-turbines can cause disturbance and disrupt the use of echolocation for communication and prey detection.
- coastal developments destroy the harbour porpoise habitat.

Today is the #BalticSeaActionPlanDay, HELCOM (tag)’s programme of measures and actions for a healthy Baltic.
At the HELCOM Stakeholder Conference and High-level Meeting held in March 2020, we presented a joint ‘Shadow Plan’ (link in bio) in response to the ongoing Baltic Sea Action Plan (BSAP) update process. The Shadow Plan contains recommended actions across all themes addressed by the current Action Plan.
On 7-8 December, the HELCOM Ministers will meet to discuss the ongoing process which will end in October 2021. The updated plan needs to be more than just a plan – it needs concrete actions that deliver measurable results.
It is the responsibility of the national governments and Ministers involved in the update process to ensure that the action plan effectively benefits both people and nature. Will a #BalticSeaActionPlan be more than a plan or will that remain on our Christmas wish list again next year?

🌊 Together with 150 NGOs, we call on the EU to end support for new hydropower projects in Europe.

Hydropower plants destroy wetlands, break up rivers, block fish migration routes, trap sediments, and can reduce the availability of drinking water. 🏞️
Yet 1/3 of new plants in 🇪🇺 are set to be built in #nature protection areas!

We don’t want anymore of this in Europe. To read the Hydropower Manifesto check the link in bio.
