Solutions for a healthy Baltic Sea

Identifying nutrient leakage points in fertiliser production and developing a cooperation framework with large fertiliser manufacturers and port operators in the Baltic Sea region.

Reducing nutrient leakage by applying gypsum to farmlands, a method shown to reduce phosphorus runoff and soil erosion.

Coastal reed binds nutrients and by harvesting reed, nutrients can be removed in a way that also produces climate-friendly raw materials for a variety of uses.

The handling of dry bulk fertilizers and phosphates in ports is a significant source of nutrient leakage to the Baltic Sea.

The City Accelerator focuses on accelerating the work of municipalities to reduce their impact on the Baltic Sea.

The project contributes to research and accelerates solutions to reduce the excess of nutrients in the bottom sediments in coastal environments.

Horse manure is an overlooked source of nutrients leaking into the Baltic Sea. Through frequent mucking of pastures and paddocks, this leakage can be substantially reduced.

Creating good conditions for sustainable fishing of the so far underutilised fish species bream and ide, contributing to reduce eutrophication in the Baltic Sea.
