Abstract

The Black Sea is a direct link between the European Union and Asia, being a complex geopolitical region. Mutual respect through good neighborly treaties and continued cooperation are needed to achieve regional environmental goals. This paper reflects the importance of ongoing cooperation in resolving new issues that have arisen in recent decades. Coastal erosion followed by the collapse of rocks as a result of small earthquakes in deep water, water pollution due to maritime accidents or municipal and industrial wastewater discharges, eutrophication, pelagic fishing and climate change with thermal, chemical and biological changes in the composition of seawater , these are just a few issues that need to be addressed. At the beginning of the paper, some experimental measurements are briefly presented to highlight the current situation regarding the sources of pollution. The high concentration of hydrocarbons and ions is the cause of the appearance and overdevelopment of invasive marine species. A special paragraph illustrates in parallel some endangered species and some invasive species. New rules on fisheries regulation need to be implemented. A healthy Black Sea environment is a priority for the whole of Europe.
