CCB - Coalition Clean Baltic

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.

CCB’s own Paula Benders represented the Baltic Sea Parliamentary Youth Forum ( ) delegation at the Baltic Sea Parliamentary Conference from Friday 28th August to Tuesday 1st September.

Speaking on the second panel of Youth Set Sail: for a thriving Baltic Sea Region, Paula discussed:

🌊 the need for better transitions from education to jobs,
🌊 the importance of environmental protection to human wellbeing and resilience, highlighting our project Green Recovery for Ukraine: From Source to Sea,
🌊 and mentioned CCB’s work with policy processes and implementation,

alongside high level ministers from the European Parliament, CBSS, and the Young People Network for Balticness.

Thank you to Schleswig-Holstein, Council of the Baltic Sea States and the Baltic Sea Youth Forum for the opportunity to engage with voices from across the region, to bring meaningful change in policy to protect our Baltic Sea.

The European Commission has published its proposal for 2027 Baltic Sea fishing opportunities. 🐟 Together with other environmental and angling organisations, CCB is calling on EU fisheries ministers to turn fragile progress into lasting recovery.

Improvements in Central Baltic and show that recovery is possible, but it is not yet secured. For several populations, including sprat, Bothnian herring, plaice and salmon, this means setting lower, more precautionary and ecosystem-based fishing opportunities.

In October 2025, the European Commission and the eight Baltic EU Member States agreed on the urgent need to rebuild Baltic Sea fish populations. The 2027 decision is the first real test of that commitment to restore the . 🌊

CCB mourns the passing of Petro Hrytsyshyn, for many years Director of the Western Centre of the Ukrainian Branch of the International Centre for Scientific Culture – World Laboratory in Lviv, one of CCB’s oldest member organisations in Ukraine, and a long-standing friend of our network.

For decades he worked across borders on water protection and ecological sanitation in Ukraine, and welcomed many of us to Lviv with a warmth we won't forget.

Our thoughts are with his family, friends, colleagues and all those who had the privilege of knowing and working with him.

How do we protect grey dunes without closing them?

When there are no clear paths or guidance, dunes are trampled, habitats are damaged, restoration efforts fail.

🌿The solution is Nature Accessibility Certification.

Nature Accessibility is about balance:
🌿 protecting sensitive ecosystems
🚶 guiding visitors through designated routes
🌍 keeping nature open and accessible

It’s not about restrictions, it´s about protecting nature.

Some things in nature look right. But on grey dunes looks can be misleading.

🌿These ecosystems depend on balance and active management,
and small changes can have big consequences.

Restoring grey dunes is not about “fixing nature”. It’s about bringing back natural conditions, which includes:
🌱 removing trees
🌱 controlling invasive species
🌱 restoring open habitats
🌱 managing access

Grey dunes do much more than you think. They are not just landscapes, they are natural coastal protection, biodiversity hotspots, and climate solutions.

🌍 In Europe, grey dunes are a priority habitat ( ) and they are fundamental to:
☑️protect the coast from storms and erosion
☑️ support rare and unique species
☑️ help ecosystems adapt to climate change

But here’s the problem: grey dunes are disappearing. 🌿Without proper management, they slowly degrade or disappear completely.

Losing grey dunes means losing both nature and coastal protection!

There is still time to register to the online workshop "How to reduce waste at events" on 📅 20 August 2026 | 🕙 10:00 - 12:00 CET, which is organised under the framework of the Change(K)now! project.

Led by Frithjof Vogelsang, expert at Netzwerk Green Events (NGE), your organization will learn how to build a circular mapping for your own event, with practical tools and concrete examples from those who've already made the switch!

On a beautiful summer day at the beach, we see kids splashing and swimming around, goggles on, pointing at fish and little sea creatures in clean water. Maybe later, a plate of fresh local fish at a harbourside restaurant, watching fishers bring in their catch.

But nowadays, we are far from this summer day. That image of a healthy sea is one we now need AI to create - and it shouldn't be. Poor management is contributing to empty seas, declining fish stocks, eutrophication, and struggling coastal communities, also leaving seals, seabirds and harbour porpoises with less food. 🐟

The good news is that turning this around doesn´t require new solutions. The actions needed are simple and can be implemented immediately: set precautionary and science-based fishing limits, promote low-impact fishing methods, and protect and restore marine habitats. These actions are already part of our Common Fisheries Policy ( ), but largely not yet implemented.

If member states implement them swiftly, we would have more fish in the Baltic Sea, a thriving , and many beautiful summer days in future for us and our kids. 🌊

That takeaway cup you grab every day? It’s not just cardboard.

Most single-use “paper” cups are lined with a thin layer of plastic (usually polyethylene) to prevent leaks. And when hot coffee or tea is poured in, this plastic layer starts to break down.

🔥 Heat + time = microplastics in your drink

Studies* show that after just 15 minutes, a single cup can release around 25,000 microplastic particles into 100 mL of liquid, plus billions of even smaller particles.

Choose safer alternatives. Even small choices reduce both plastic waste and your exposure. ☕ So next time you order takeaway coffee, ask yourself: maybe you have 10 minutes to drink it on the spot, or maybe it’s time to get your own reusable cup.
