Bellona Launches Oslofjord Kelp Park

Bellona has launched the Oslofjord Kelp Park, a pilot kelp cultivation facility outside Slemmestad, about 30 kilometers southwest of Oslo, aimed at restoring environmental conditions in the heavily stressed Oslofjord.

“We are going to show how we can use nature’s solutions to fix nature’s problems. Great values have been lost here, and the hope is to bring life back to our fjord,” says Bellona chair Frederic Hauge.

Kelp forests serve as natural habitats for fish and other marine life.
