Mehr Hitzetage bedeuten auch mehr Sonnenschutz. Schätzungsweise 14.000 Tonnen Sonnenschutzmittel gelangen jedes Jahr in die Meere. Für bestimmte UV-Filter wurden Auswirkungen auf Algen, Meeressäuger und Korallen nachgewiesen. Ein oft übersehener Zusammenhang zwischen Klimaanpassung und Meeresschutz.

Informationsgrafik der BLANO (Bund/Länder-Arbeitsgemeinschaft Nord- und Ostsee) zum umweltfreundlichen Umgang mit Sonnencreme. Die Illustration zeigt Badegäste am Strand sowie Meerestiere und Algen. Sie erläutert, dass bestimmte UV-Filter in Sonnencremes die Meeresumwelt belasten können, indem sie sich in Organismen anreichern, Algen schädigen oder Korallen beeinträchtigen. Zudem werden Tipps zum Meeresschutz gegeben, darunter das Tragen von UV-Schutzkleidung, das Vermeiden der Mittagssonne, das Eincremen vor dem Baden sowie die Wahl von Produkten mit umweltverträglicheren Inhaltsstoffen. Ein QR-Code verweist auf weiterführende Informationen.

The challenge for ecosystem-based adaptation is no longer proving that it works. The challenge is scaling it. Our discussion paper explores pathways for scaling coastal EbA, from blended finance & blue carbon credits to governance approaches that support long-term resilience. 📖 tinyurl.com/56k2uxhd
