2 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT The total economic damage of marine plastic waste is estimated at almost 12 billion per year, including environmental, commercial and clean-up costs Up to 12.7 million tons of marine plastic waste enters the oceans each year due to poor waste management practices Experts believe that entanglement by fishing-related gear is the most harmful type of litter to seabirds, turtles and marine mammals Over nets are estimated to be lost in selected European fisheries annually due to bad weather conditions, gear conflict and ocean currents By 2025 there could be 155 million tones of plastic in the ocean, representing one tonne of plastic for every three tonnes of fish Long term effects on marine life include impacts on marine ecosystems that ultimately leads to loss of biodiversity Plastic material absorbs persistent organic pollutant from its ambient environment, which if ingested by marine organisms, may enter the food web Approximately 640,000 tonnes of fishing gear are lost globally each year
3 Inspiring Communities to realise the hidden economic opportunities of discarded fishing nets and ropes in the Northern Periphery & Arctic region Circular Ocean is a three year research project, starting October 2015 funded by the ERDF Interreg VB Northern Periphery and Arctic (NPA) Programme Priority axis 2: Entrepreneurship Objective 2.1: Improved support systems for SMEs Assist remote and rural coastal regions to develop green economies Develop and share new sustainable solutions for recycling marine plastic waste Incentivise collection and reprocessing of discarded fishing nets and assist the movement towards a more circular economy
4 THE NORTHERN PERIPHERY AND ARCTIC REGION
5 REGIONAL CHALLENGES PERIPHERAL LOCATION LIMITED BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES INCREASE IN SEA TRAFFIC LOW POPULATION DENSITY NEGATIVE IMPACT ON TOURISM MANAGING WASTE MATERIALS
6 OBJECTIVES Showcase: Create a regional showcase for circular economy innovation Support System: Provide a sustainable and responsible green business support system to assist remote and rural coastal regions to develop green economies Connect: Connect remote communities to a wider network to expand green business opportunities Exchanges: Facilitate the transfer of green enterprise best practice and knowledge exchange across the NPA region Environment: Enhance the environment for green businesses and entrepreneurs through blue growth related opportunities Solutions: Develop sustainable region-specific and novel solutions using resources of the NPA area
