The damage America may do to the ocean will affect everyone.
Oceans know no borders.

Trump is not only undermining respect for multilateralism and America's standing in the world.
Science demonstrates that deep-sea mining will cause irreversible environmental damage, with ecosystems unlikely to recover on human time-scales.

The risks associated with deep-sea mining extend well beyond environmental degradation, with significant risks also posed to marine ecosystems, coastal and indigenous communities, and businesses.

We really don't need to ruin one of the last untouched environments to make the billionaires richer. Humankind is much better off with a healthy ocean than with a new destructive industry.

This video explains it all very well.

The deep sea is not for sale. The International Seabed Authority must reject corporate pressure from wannabe deep sea miners like The Metals Company. Greed, not public need, is driving the push to launch deep sea mining.

WATCH: as Greenpeace Nordic set up a casino at a deep sea mining conference in Bergen, Norway, another deep sea mining player, Loke Marine Minerals of Norway, declared bankruptcy. https://youtube.com/shorts/Gx9nUT0DHMA?feature=share

One thing is clear: mining the ocean floor is a reckless gamble.

The Metals Company wants to rip apart the ocean floor, destroying ancient habitats and wiping out deep-sea creatures we barely understand.

Scientists are warning damage to these fragile ecosystems could last millions of years.

Is corporate greed really worth the cost of an entire world beneath the waves?

A great #podcast episode from the always awesome #lifeUnderWater.

The deep sea of Norway, it's richness and the recklessness of mining an ecosystem we barely even discovered.

Plus the story of Vladimir the beluga whale.

The truth is slowly coming out about what deep sea mining would actually support.

War.

In my opinion, we definitely should NOT sacrifice the great unknown habitats of the depths of the sea so that a handful of already extremely wealthy people can become even wealthier.
But what do I know.

Another clean energy company says no to deep sea mining

First Solar bars use of deep-sea minerals, early win for ESG group https://www.reuters.com/sustainability/first-solar-bars-use-deep-sea-minerals-early-win-esg-group-2025-02-05/

Imagine if we could stop offshore drilling at the dawn of the oil age.

This is exactly where we’re at with the deep sea mining industry.

We must not let history repeat itself.
