The campaign aims to save the
 Baltic Sea and its heritage for future generations. Companies – including Muurla and Ekelund – have launched a range of #OURSEA Moomin housewares and gift product and are making donations to the campaign for every sold.

The aim of the campaign is to raise awareness
 of the conditions of the Baltic Sea and raise
 one million Euros to fund its clean up, together with John Nurminen 
Foundation, a Finnish maritime organisation which wants to save the Baltic.
