3 Did you know 90 % of the Estonians have been by the sea for leisure 43 % of the Estonians view the coastal water quality as a very big or rather big problem 69 % of the Estonians are worried about the Baltic Sea environment Source:Baltic Survey

5 PRESENTATION OUTLINE What is the state of the Baltic Sea? What can be done? How can it be done?
6 What is the state of the Baltic Sea?
7 THE BALTIC SEA 9 countries 85 million people Many preassures on the sea Vulnerable marine environment Little inflow of saline water Much inflow of freshwater Slow exchange of water One of the most polluted seas in the world Source: Helcom
8 WHAT ARE THE BIGGEST PROBLEMS? Human impact: Eutrophication (phosphorus and nitrogen) Hazardous substances Habitat destruction Overfishing Risk of oil spills
9 WHAT IS THE STATE OF THE BALTIC SEA? Human impact: eutrophication, biodiversity loss, hazardous substances (eg PCB:s, heavy metals) Source: Helcom
10 WHAT IS THE STATE OF THE BALTIC SEA? Only small parts in Gulf of Bothnia and Orther Bucht has good ecological status. Ecosystem so degraded that the capacity to deliver ecosystem services is hampered Scientific findings: great economic values at risk if no action is taken Source: Helcom 2014
11 WHAT CAUSES THE PROBLEMS? Nutrients (phosphorous and nitrogen) and hazardous substances enter the sea HUMAN ACTIVITY: Agriculture Waste water Ships Traffic Industries Overfishing -> Consumption & lifestyle
12 What can be done?
13 WHAT CAN BE DONE? 1. Improve waste water treatment 2. Reduce nutrient emissions from agriculture 3. Improve waste water treatment in scattered areas 4. Reduce emissions from shipping and boating 5. Reduce risk of oil spills 6. Raise awareness about the state of the Baltic Sea
14 How can it be done?
15 THE BALTIC SEA CHALLENGE (BSC) Action at the local level is key Water protection additional to legally binding obligations Healthy waters = competitiveness and welfare 200 partners: cities, companies, schools, NGO:s. For example: Tallinn City
16 EXAMPLE: AGRICULTURE City of Turku Aim: Decrease pollution and nutrients entering the waters Water pollution conditions for renting out agriculture land Buffer zones Wetlands, dams 100% organical farming on the city s land
17 EXAMPLE: WASTE WATER TREATMENT Helsinki Region Environmental Services Authority (HSY) Aim: Decrease nutrients (phosphorus and nitrogen) and chemicals from entering the water bodies Improving efficiency of waste water treatment plants (WWTP) Decreasing amounts of storm water to WWTP Improving waste water handling in scattered areas
18 EXAMPLE: STORM WATER MANAGEMENT Tallinn City Aim: Puryfying the water that enters Pirita Jõgi Tallinn botanical garden: Lepiku watercorse Natural storm water handling Finished by mid-july Constructed as part of the CITYWATER project
19 HOW CAN WE JOIN THE CHALLENGE? Sign the Baltic Sea Challenge declaration and Commit to at least one action for saving the Baltic Sea
20 WHY JOIN THE BALTIC SEA CHALLENGE? Learning from each other - exchanging ideas
21 WHY JOIN THE BALTIC SEA CHALLENGE? Seminars, networks, finding new partners
22 WHY JOIN THE BALTIC SEA CHALLENGE? Visibility: Facebook, website, newsletter
23 WHY JOIN THE BALTIC SEA CHALLENGE? Together we get seen
24 WHY JOIN THE BALTIC SEA CHALLENGE? and heard
25 WHY JOIN THE BALTIC SEA CHALLENGE? Funding opportunities Example: CITYWATER Partners: Cities of Helsinki (lead partner), Tallinn, Turku, and Tallinn University. Duration: 3 years Budget: 1.2 million euros. Co-financed by the European Commission Life+ programme (50%) and the Finnish Ministry of the Environment, and by partners Actions: Cost-benefit analysis, environmental communication, storm water management constructions, promoting the BSC
26 SUMMARY: TAKE ACTION FOR THE BALTIC SEA! The Baltic Sea needs our help Action at the local level is crucial The Baltic Sea Challenge supports concrete action at the local level
