Give an intangible Christmas gift
– save the Baltic Sea
Why donate at Christmas to the Baltic Sea?
The Baltic Sea is suffering from eutrophication, which is causing biodiversity loss. Biodiversity loss in the Baltic Sea is progressing faster than in other seas around the world.
We humans have created dubious wonders in the Baltic Sea that worsen biodiversity loss.
To halt biodiversity loss and reduce eutrophication, we need effective measures to protect the Baltic Sea.
The Baltic Sea does’t need miracles, it needs work
Donate to rescue efforts and help combat biodiversity loss
Donate as a company – give an intangible gift
The main environmental problem in the Baltic Sea is eutrophication due to excessive nutrient load, but oil and chemical transports, loss of nature and climate change also threaten the Baltic Sea. With the donation, help us at the John Nurminen Foundation to do concrete work to save the sea. Give a gift to your stakeholders or staff this Christmas that none of us have yet: a clean Baltic Sea. Donate to the rescue work!

How will my donation be used?
Reducing eutrophication
When you donate, you support concrete work to save the Baltic Sea. We reduce the nutrient load of food production and forestry, and thus reduce eutrophication. We also reduce the nutrient load by other means, e.g. by restoring peat production areas.
Reducing emissions from maritime transport
When you donate, you support our work to reduce emissions from shipping and ports. We are developing ways to stop chemical emissions from tankers and to minimize emissions from loading ships.
Prevention of nature loss
Your donation supports our work for biodiversity. Prevention the loss of nature requires reducing emissions and restoration work. We restore key marine species and subsurface habitats to a vibrant marine ecosystem.
Strengthening the human relationship with the sea
With the help of donations, we strengthen people’s relationship with the sea, so that people are ready to make concrete changes in their everyday lives. We publish books, organize exhibitions and events, and coordinate the annual International Baltic Sea Day.
