Baltic Sea Plastic-Free

Baltic Environmental Forum Germany (BEF) and Hamburg University of Applied Sciences (HAW) set sails towards Stockholm to meet Keep Sweden Tidy - Håll Sverige Rent for a joint Clean-Up-Action!

The citizens-science initiative from Hamburg @sailingforseas with the skipper @rolfmenzinger invited our colleague from BEF Germany to join them on their sustainable sailing trip to Stockholm. Sailing on board of the “ZERO” sailing boat means using less engine - more sails, avoiding plastic and chemicals, eating vegan meal, using solar batteries and taking water samples for the marine science researches.

What a great chance to join our forces against plastic pollution in the Baltic Sea!

Keep Sweden Tidy with their long-term experience in protecting the coasts against marine littering has set up the clean-up action for the July, 13^th!

This international event aims to raise awareness for the plastic pollution problem among the citizens, tourists as well as within the international sailing community.

Join us on July, 13^th at 11:00 AM for the clean-up!

Meeting point: Djurgårdsbron by Strandvägen

Tidy Sweden - tidy Baltic Sea! We are all connected!
