The CLEAN BERTH project was presented at the online workshop “Improving the sustainability of maritime transport in the Adriatic Sea”, organised by the CMCC Foundation – Centro Euro-Mediterraneo sui Cambiamenti Climatici on October 19th 2021.

The workshop was a cross-fertilisation event in the framework of the E-CHAIN, GUTTA and METRO projects, co-funded by the Interreg Italy-Croatia Cross-Border Cooperation Programme, describing the outcomes of the respective project activities and lessons learned.

Also, EMSA – European Maritime Safety Agency, the EU institution based in Lisbon working on maritime safety, security and prevention of pollution, outlined the main content of the “European Maritime Transport Environment Report” published on Sept. 1st, covering all environmental aspects of maritime transport, such as air pollution, water pollution, marine litter, greenhouse gases, etc.

In this framework, the Port Network Authority of the Eastern Adriatic Sea, LP of the CLEAN BERTH introduced the main project content and preliminary outputs, underlining the need for further cooperation among all freight transport stakeholders – from the sea and land side alike – in order to reduce the environmental impact of port operations, in the light of the EU Green Deal objectives.
