On May 20th, during the European Maritime Day celebrations, the European Commissioner for Environment, Ocean and Fisheries, Virginijus Sinkevičius, launched the #MakeEUBlue campaign.

Powered by the EU4Ocean Coalition, this initiative is a call on citizens, businesses, organisations, authorities, and celebrities to commit to an action that can benefit the ocean.

The ocean’s ability to serve as the Planet’s life support system is compromised by several threats, such as climate change, overfishing and pollution. Civil society’s response to turn this tipping point must be through a pledge for the ocean. Every pledge, even the smallest one, is vital to tackle the ocean crisis.

EurOcean as part of its mission and as a member of EU4Ocean did its pledge.

"By catering information, interaction, and innovation to society, EurOcean pledges to strongly support the essential changes for the ocean we need."

Join us and pledge too for our ocean!
