Zentrum soll bei Munitionsbergung in Nord- und Ostsee helfen

The article discusses the ongoing issue of unexploded munitions lying at the bottom of the North and Baltic Seas, posing environmental risks. It reports that up to 1.6 million tons of conventional munition, some still armed, are located near German coasts, with significant concentrations off the coast of Schleswig-Holstein. The federal government has established a competence center in Rostock to oversee the recovery efforts and plans to build a floating industrial platform by mid-2028 for the safe disposal of recovered munitions. Environmental concerns include the release of toxic substances like TNT into waterways, which have been detected in local shellfish and fish, potentially leading to health risks such as cancer and genetic damage.
