Ailing Baltic Sea in need of urgent attention
Decades of pollution and climate change have caused fish to disappear from the Baltic Sea at an alarming rate, with the European Union on Thursday vowing to make the sea an "urgent priority". Unveiling its road map to protect Europe's seas, the European Ocean Pact, Brussels announced a summit on the state of the Baltic Sea in late September. The semi-enclosed sea is surrounded by industrial and agricultural nations Germany, Poland, Russia, Finland, Sweden, Denmark and the three Baltic states. Connected to the Atlantic only by the narrow waters of the Danish straits, the Baltic is known for its shallow, low-salinity waters, which are highly sensitive to the climate and environmental changes that have accumulated over the years. "Today, the once massive Baltic cod stocks have collapsed, herring stocks in several sub-basins are balancing on critical levels, sprat recruitment is at a record low and wild salmon stocks are in decline," Swedish European MP Isabella Lovin, rapporteur for the EU Committee of Fishing, warned in a report, calling the situation "critical". - Dead marine zones and climate change - The Baltic Sea is home to some of the world's largest dead marine zones, mainly due to excess nutrient runoff into the sea from human activities on land -- a challenge the sea has long grappled with. The runoff has primarily been phosphorus and nitrogen from waste water and fertilisers used in agriculture, as well as other activities such as forestry. It causes vast algae blooms in summer, a process known as eutrophication that removes oxygen from the water, leaving behind dead seabeds and marine habitats and threatening species living in the Baltic. Today, agriculture is the biggest source of nutrient pollution. Marine biodiversity in the relatively small sea has also deteriorated due to pollution from hazardous substances, land use, extraction of resources and climate change, according to the Baltic Marine Environment Protection Commission (HELCOM). "The state of the Baltic Sea is not good," Maria Laamanen, a senior advisor at the Finnish environment ministry, told AFP. Climate change poses "a massive additional challenge" for the marine environment, she said. Of the world's coastal seas, the Baltic Sea is warming the fastest. A 2024 study said sea surface and sea floor temperatures have increased by 1.8 and 1.3 degrees Celsius respectively in the Finnish archipelago in the northern Baltic Sea, in the period from 1927 to 2020. The consequences of rising temperatures already affect species, while increased rainfall has led to more runoff from land to sea. Better waste water treatment and gypsum treatment of agricultural soil, as well as an expansion of protected marine areas in Finland, have had a positive effect on the maritime environment, according to Laamanen, who said environmental engagement had grown in recent years. "The situation would be much worse without the measures already implemented," she said. - Fisheries - In her report, Lovin called for an ambitious reform of fisheries, with stronger attention paid to environmental and climate change impacts. The report also questioned whether the Baltic could continue to sustain industrial-scale trawling, and suggested giving "priority access to low-impact fisheries and fishing for human consumption". The head of the Finnish Fishermen's Association (SAKL) Kim Jordas said eutrophication was to blame for the declining fish stocks in the Baltic Sea, not overfishing. "Looking at cod for example, it is entirely due to the state of the Baltic Sea and the poor oxygen situation," Jordas told AFP. In Finland, the number of commercial fishermen has been declining, with a total of around 400 active today. ank/po/giv

Brentford set transfer priorities amid interest in Mbeumo and Wissa
Brentford Transfers: Summer Shake-Up on the Horizon Mbeumo and Wissa under the spotlight Brentford's summer transfer window looks poised to test the club's resolve and recruitment strategy. With top-six sides circling, the futures of star forwards Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa remain delicately poised. Together they delivered 39 Premier League goals last season, providing the bite that kept Brentford competitive across the campaign. Advertisement Manchester United are preparing to open talks over Mbeumo. A reported £60 million could tempt Brentford's hierarchy to negotiate. Wissa, too, is attracting serious attention. Tottenham made overtures in January and Nottingham Forest saw a £22 million bid rejected. While no fresh offers have yet landed, interest is expected to escalate as the window progresses. Their potential departures leave a considerable void. Thomas Frank and his recruitment team know that replacing either player—let alone both—would be far from straightforward. Forward planning already underway Brentford's response has been proactive. The club has already confirmed a deal for Liverpool's Caoimhin Kelleher, bringing the Republic of Ireland international in for £18 million including add-ons. Mark Flekken's move to Bayer Leverkusen for £11 million created the opening, and Brentford wasted no time filling it. Photo: IMAGO They also moved for 18-year-old talent Romelle Donovan from Birmingham City, a £3 million deal which could rise with performance-related bonuses. Donovan impressed while on loan and joins with a long-term view to development, but his arrival won't impact the more immediate need for frontline reinforcements. Advertisement The priority now? A goalscoring winger, preferably right-sided. Despite Kevin Schade's growth over the past 18 months, the Bees have leaned too heavily on Mbeumo and Wissa. That over-reliance has been acknowledged internally. Nigeria international Christantus Uche, currently at Getafe, has been linked. While a deal isn't close, he fits the club's profile: versatile, quick and with resale potential. Midfield and centre-back options being reviewed Brentford also aim to strengthen in midfield, specifically targeting a box-to-box No8 and a more defensively-minded option. That comes even after securing promising Ukrainian Yehor Yarmoliuk to a long-term deal. Advertisement At the back, the Bees are unlikely to invest heavily at full-back. Michael Kayode's loan from Fiorentina has been made permanent for £14.8 million, shoring up the wide defensive positions. The focus now is on spotting undervalued centre-backs—a Brentford speciality in past windows. Uncertainty at managerial level Perhaps most intriguingly, manager Thomas Frank could yet become part of the summer movement. Spurs are reportedly monitoring the Danish coach as they weigh their next step. While no formal approach has been made, it adds another layer of unpredictability to Brentford's off-season. Sales are expected beyond Mbeumo and Wissa. Mads Roerslev and Frank Onyeka are available at the right price, with offers anticipated once bigger moves begin to shape the market. Brentford's transfer window is rarely dull. This one, though, could be season-defining.
