Nature has persistently been sounding the alarm for the state of our planet for years – but that alarm has never been as loud as it is now. Floods, droughts, fires, soaring temperatures, and melting ice caps are impacting both people and nature in a way they have never before. Concern has peaked among a steadily increasing amount of people, who join scientists in their pleads to governments to - quite literally - stop the madness. To protect our planet, and to de facto, save humanity. To restore nature.
Our seas are pressed for space. There is an increasing demand for it by a growing number of activities that are steadily increasing their intensity. Activities such as fishing, extraction of raw materials, shipping, tourism, aquaculture, but also installations to produce energy from renewable sources are all competing for space at sea. All these activities and more, must be managed in a coordinated and coherent way. Maritime Spatial Planning aims to do this following an ecosystem-based approach that ensures the achievement of Good Environmental Status of our seas. But are EU Member States’ maritime spatial plans sufficient to deliver on this?
