United by our concern for the Baltic Sea, NGOs, small-scale fishers and anglers met yesterday with commissioner @CostasKadisto to discuss recovery measures for Baltic fish and ecosystems. We hope today’s #OurBaltic Ministerial Conference responds with the urgent action needed.

Low pulse... Low energy...😮💨 Our marine ecosystems are fatigued and their pulse is sinking. It's time to #ReviveTheOcean, one pulse at a time 💙

Today is #WorldWhaleDay! Let’s not forget that we have a small whale right here in the Baltic Sea: the Baltic harbour porpoise 🐬🌊
They risk going extinct… Can innovation be the solution?

Ghost nets pose a big threat to our sea’s only whale 🐬
Discover what @WWFSverige and @WWF_Deutschland are doing to protect the Baltic harbour porpoise 🔗 wwfbaltic.org/newsroom/marin…
#BalticSea #WorldWhaleWeek #GhostGear @WWF_Whales
The #BalticHarbourPorpoise deserves more attention. We have our own little whale in the Baltic Sea! But with only ~500 individuals left, it's hardly ever seen.
Let's change that! 🐬
It’s #WorldWhaleWeek! Did you know we have whales right here in our Baltic Sea? 🐬🌍
But the Baltic harbour porpoise is being pushed to extinction from bycatch, noise, pollution, overfishing and climate change. Only <500 individuals remain.
Let’s save our only whale, together

Successful stakeholder meeting in Latvia!👥@DabasFonds recently brought together landowners, government reps, and NGOs to discuss the #BaltCOP project and the importance of improving water quality and reducing nutrient runoff💧

Actions have impact! Now more is needed to recude eutrophication in the #BalticSea.
🚨New research shows that without nutrient reduction efforts, #BalticSea dead zones (black) would be >80% larger! We've avoided disaster, but much more action is needed to create a healthy sea and to bend the curve on biodiversity loss.

During yesterday’s #SustainableFarming panel, Airi Külvet from Puutsa farm in 🇪🇪 stated the vital importance of working with nature, not against it. She also provided insight into the realities of eco-schemes and why shifting to results-based payments may be the way forward.

The #BalticSea is one of the fastest-warming marine ecosystems on the planet and the frequency of marine heatwaves has been 📈 due to the #ClimateCrisis.
⌛️It’s time to #ActForOurPlanet. The ocean – and our future – depend on it.
#COP29
Let’s face it: We’re #InHotWater 🌡️
Marine heatwaves push ecosystems to the edge.
From coral bleaching to devastating storms, people and nature are in peril.
It’s time to stop burning fossil fuels.
The ocean – and our future – depend on it. #COP29 #ActForOurPlanet
Looking forward to this event, where views from #Baltic farmers will be heard. Join us 👇
Sustainable farming is needed now more than ever. Join us on Nov 19 to discuss #SustainableFarming for a competitive future 🚜🇪🇺

Espanjaa koetelleet tulvat ovat muistutus siitä, millainen tuhovoima vedellä voi olla.
Samalla ne korostavat vesienhallintatyön tärkeyttä. Esimerkiksi kosteikoita rakentamalla voidaan tehdä tilaa vedelle ja lisätä monimuotoisuutta. 🦋

13 (!) #OWF areas denied permits from the Swedish government. All in the #BalticSea. Why? Security concerns.
Time to scrap the SE open-door system, improve planning across the Baltic region, weighing security, energy, societal & ecosystem concerns!
