Viking Line actively contributes to the work for protecting the Baltic Sea by supporting environmental organisations operating in the area in different ways.
In the spring of 2016, the Finnish organisation Pidä Saaristo Siistinä ry and the Swedish organisation Håll Sverige Rent received a total of 70,000 euros. Viking Line also donated 100,000 euros for research on the Baltic Sea to the University of Helsinki.
In 2017 Viking Line donated a total of 100,000 euros to the environmental work for the Baltic Sea. The donated amount came from the sales of plastic carry bags in the shops onboard. The donation went to five environmental organizations: BSAG (Baltic Sea Action Group), Håll Skärgården Ren rf, John Nurminens Stiftelse, Håll Sverige Rent and Östersjöfonden.
Our environmental responsibility is visible in many ways in the daily life on board. The coffee grown on Viking Line’s ships is organically grown. The fish served also comes from sustainable sources recommended by Miljöstyrningsrådet in Sweden.
