Let's make our voice heard ahead of the next European elections in May 2024!
Come back on March 15th!
Thank you for your contributions, the first phase of the consultation is now closed. Our coalition of Blue NGOs is currently reviewing all of the ideas submitted. We will be back on March 30th for the second phase of the consultation to present you with the top 10 contributions.
Once again, we will need your support once again to be the Ocean's voice so stay tuned!
The Ocean and our seas provide us with nothing less than oxygen, food, resources, energy, well-being, recreation, culture, jobs and beauty. And yet, the Ocean is home to growing human activities which put this incredible natural space at risk. The good news is that with the right measures, we have a chance to change the situation. It's Bluedy Time, Europe! is giving us the opportunity to voice our ideas and to shape the European elections that will take place in May 2024.
As European citizens, we are experts, coastal residents or lovers of the Ocean. In our free time, in the way we consume, in our research, in our jobs, through our leisure activities, or because we live close to the Ocean, we bear witness to the urgent need to act for the Ocean.
We can all make a difference: Participate in the largest Ocean consultation in Europe!

The Ocean's and Europe's coastlines are dramatically impacted by climate change. The Ocean plays a fundamental role in the climate system by regulating it and helping to fight against climate change.

The health of the ocean is intimately tied to our own health. Pollution can directly impact us in many ways: when we bathe, when we recreate... but also in our daily life. Still, European waters are an incredible source of therapeutic benefits and well-being.
