Current developments and challenges of the Baltic Sea

The Baltic Sea, an inland sea in Northern Europe, is currently the focus of many discussions and developments. On the one hand, environmental issues such as plastic waste pollution and the impact of climate change on marine flora and fauna are important. On the other hand, geopolitical aspects play a role, such as Russia's recent naval maneuvers in the Baltic Sea. These developments show that the Baltic Sea is a complex ecosystem influenced by both natural and man-made factors.
