We Save the Baltic Sea
and its Heritage
Spotlight
Controlling greenhouse gas emissions, nutrient runoff, and biodiversity loss
In our new project, we are restoring former peat production areas into diverse wetlands. A restored wetland reduces nutrient runoff into the Baltic Sea, and the peat field transforms from a source of emissions into a carbon sink.
Digital Exhibition: Fog of War
The exhibition takes you on a journey to explore shipwrecks from the World War I and the dramatic stories still found from the depths of the sea. The exhibition is based on the book Fog of War, which you can purchase from our online store.
New Guidelines to Reduce Nutrient Emissions from Ports Handling Fertilizers
The guidelines developed under the leadership of the John Nurminen Foundation contain recommendations for, e.g., the loading of fertilizers and personnel training. The Guidelines are on their way to becoming an international recommendation by HELCOM.
