Shipping emissions are predicted to increase between 50% and 250% by 2050 -depending on future economic and energy developments. For nautical boats the "end of use" (in Europe 80,000 boats, reach their 'end of use's each year) is one of the main challenges for the industry which poses a threat to the environment and a recycling challenge.Staff qualifications, the inability to attract young workers remain one of the crucial points in Europe. To boost the recruitment of highly prepared staff requires initiatives addressing learning to make the Environmental management and security related sectors attractive and to transform both the academic knowledge and high-level basic and transversal competences to be useful and applicable. This book seek to offer an adaptedcurriculum to equip the young generation with the specific, basic and transversal competences currently re-quired in the planning, climate change mitigation and vested industries. Book has been designed with the aim to support the development and the implemen-tation of an innovative practice, a new training path for the carbon neutral management of sport marinas.This initiative complies with one of the principal aims of the Erasmus+ program: Promoting synergies and cross fertilisation throughout the different fields of education, training and youth, removing artificial boundaries between the various actions and projects formats, fostering new ideas, such as a sec-toral multi campus, promoting cross border cooperation by attracting new ac-tors from the world of work to collaborate with universities and VET, but above all, with the target of stimulating new forms of cooperation Chapter 1 Climate change impacts and adaptation.
