Eutrophication is deemed by many to be the most serious and most urgent problem facing the Baltic Sea. Yet, none of the governments of the 9 countries bordering the sea has come close to implementing satisfactory measures to address this problem. As a first step to raise the pressure on governments, the campaign issued an online petition to collect signatures to deliver to the nine Prime Ministers, demanding immediate action to stop eutrophication.

As a result of our campaign, the issue of eutrophication is already higher on the media and political agendas in the Baltic Sea countries. The campaign has also presented detailed descriptions of measures that need to be taken to stop eutrophication from agriculture and other sources. It will not happen tomorrow, but the pressure is now on the Prime Ministers to show leadership and take some real action.

The campaign will continue, and with the help of all of you who signed the petition we are now even stronger than we were before. Thank you! With your help, we are making a difference.
