Summary/Abstract: Human development needs viable models. The multi-material-intensive, energy-intensive and polluting industrial models of the past must be accepted as outdated and urgently replaced. The current state of affairs, in which humankind has depleted the Planet of viable resources, long surpassing its capacity for self-regeneration and burdening it with waste, is profoundly harmful and requires the urgent identification of sustainable solutions, thereby improving productive practice. The vision, commitment and strategy of building the blue economy must be accepted as the only way for the future progress and existence of human civilization. The blue economy must be seen as an integrating vision that postulates the generation of society-wide patterns from the natural cycle. As a result, only cascading, non-polluting production models should be promoted in the future, with the by-products released from the production process being absorbed into nature, thus preserving the possibilities of the natural environment. Undeniably, the European Union is at the forefront of the competition to generate robust bio-economic strategies for the future. It must be recognized that an intense European effort is needed to promote and implement bio-economic action plans in a broad format, requiring constructive contacts with all countries around the world. Future blue development strategies must be borderless.
