CCB promotes the protection and improvement of the Baltic Sea environment and natural resources. CCB is a politically independent, non-profit association.

In Helsinki, February 1990, non-governmental environmental organizations from the countries of the Baltic Sea Region united and established Coalition Clean Baltic (CCB) in order to co-operate in activities concerning the Baltic Sea. At present, CCB unites 27 member organizations from Belarus, Finland, Russia, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Germany, Denmark, Ukraine and Sweden. The CCB member organisations combined have over half a million members in all countries around the Baltic Sea. The main goal of CCB is to promote the protection and improvement of the Baltic Sea environment and natural resources. Common denominators for the CCB network include seeking opportunities to encourage new and constructive approaches and engaging people to become part of the solution instead of part of the problem. Being an international network organization, CCB has the advantage of being able to work both at the international and national policy levels as well as with concrete field projects.

At , CCB co-hosted "Bringing Baltic Sea fish back: from managing decline to rebuilding" with WWF Suomi , Low Impact Fishers of Europe and the EAA with funding from havochvatten .

Panellists highlighted the need for clear rebuilding objectives and targets, as well as a shared understanding of what a healthy fish population means biologically and what recovery means economically for the fishing sector. They also stressed that recovery requires better collaboration across sectors, and that scientific advice, fisheries rules and implementation must work together to support rebuilding.

Concrete proposals are already on the table: Glenn Douglas, Chair of the BSAC Science Focus Group, presented BSAC's recommendations for a Baltic Sea stock rebuilding framework �https://www.bsac.dk/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/Rebuilding-Advice-BSAC-adopted-by-ExCom-25062026.pdf

A big thank you to our co-hosts, speakers, panellists and everyone who joined us. We look forward to continuing this constructive dialogue to move from managing decline to rebuilding Baltic Sea fish populations.

Few days left to register to the Greener Agriculture for Sustainable Sea - GRASS Conference 2026!

It will take place on 📅 12–13 October 2026, both in person at the 📍 Juchowo biodynamic farm, in Poland, and streamed live online.

The main theme of the conference is the key issue of eutrophication in the Baltic Sea. Over the course of the conference, we will explore whether it is possible to curb eutrophication, and identify the necessary political and agricultural measures - bringing together representatives from the scientific community, the agricultural sector, environmental organizations, and public administration.

Thank you! 💙 Your signatures are now on the table in Brussels, delivered together with BUND, CCB, the Baltic Sea Coast Alliance (an association of citizens' initiatives in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern) and in collaboration with WeMove Europe.
But the work isn't done. The plans for oil and gas extraction just 6 km offshore Świnoujście, Poland, in transboundary waters and in protected areas are still moving forward, and the decisions ahead will shape the Baltic Sea fragile ecosystem for decades.

Together with our partners, we will keep following the approval process closely and making the case for the Baltic Sea at both national and EU level. A growing number of signatures shows decision-makers that this is not a local issue, but one that people across the Baltic Sea Region and Europe care about.

The more voices, the harder it is to ignore. If you haven't signed yet, now is the time, and please share it with others 👇

📅 12–13 October 2026
📍 Juchowo biodynamic farm, Poland, and streamed live online

Over two days, researchers, farmers, environmental organisations and public administration will look at what it would take to curb eutrophication, and which political and agricultural measures are needed to get there.

On the agenda:
🔹 How and can reduce nutrient runoff
🔹 How soil health and farming practices help retain water and
🔹 Existing and potential policy instruments to tackle eutrophication
🔹 Study visits to the Juchowo farm and nearby wetlands

The programme combines presentations, workshops and a joint discussion on the actions needed at both systemic and policy level.

Healthy fish stocks
⬇️
Less time spent searching for fish
⬇️
Less fuel used catching them
⬇️
Less money spent overall

For many fishing fleets in Europe, dependence on fossil fuels is becoming an economic as well as environmental vulnerability.

Using the EU to rebuild fish populations reduces the effort and fuel needed to catch fish, helping to cut emissions, lower costs and strengthen the long-term resilience of the sector.
