BalticReed
A project focusing on reed harvest and nutrient circulation
Project films
The objective of the BalticReed Project is to recycle nutrients from eutrophicated coastal waters of the Baltic Sea to land. At the same time, the project promotes the sustainable utilisation of reed biomass as a raw material for diverse purposes, for example replacing peat.
This video explores how reed, once seen as a nuisance, can be transformed into a valuable resource. From growing media to building material, reed offers sustainable uses that support nutrient recycling, reduce emissions, and promote local entrepreneurship.
